The combination of great people and sophisticated technology is now a must within a modern contact centre environment,” explains Hans Zachar, Group CTIO at Nutun.
“As a South African-based BPO provider, Nutun has the ability to provide high quality and cost-effective agents with vast experience and extended tenures in customer acquisition and debt collection and rehabilitation, and we combine this with innovative, omnichannel solutions to expand our reach into international markets and help lead global businesses into the future,” Zacher continues.
