Stellar, a leading global call centre and business process outsourcing provider, today announced they have been awarded a call centre outsourcing contract with one of Australia’s leading energy retailers.

The call centre outsourcing deal with Stellar involves the provision of inbound customer service for the client’s Queensland-based residential, small-to-medium enterprise, and industrial and commercial customers.

“With the expected increase in competition among energy retailers following the commencement of full retail competition in the Queensland market, our client can be confident of continuing to deliver an outstanding customer service experience to their customers,” said John Hollingsworth, Chief Executive Officer of Stellar Asia Pacific. “Stellar has a comprehensive understanding of the retail energy market in Australia, and we look forward to building a strong relationship with our new client”.

The energy retailer chose Stellar to deliver inbound customer care services based on their expertise in call centre outsourcing, in addition to their vast industry experience in the Australian retail energy market.

The service will be operated from one of Stellar’s eighteen global outsourcing centres based in Australia. Financial details and terms of the call centre outsourcing agreement were not disclosed.
