TIMEZONE

SIMILAR WORKING HOURS TO UK 
With a maximum of 2 hours time difference during daylight savings the working day is closer to the UK making it easier to manage a healthier work/life balance.  

This compares favourable with other global BPO destinations where evening and night working is common place. 

ACCENT

NEUTRAL ACCENT UNDERSTOOD BY UK CUSTOMERS
Access to a highly proficient English speaking talent pool, both written and spoken, with an easily understood and more neutral accent than in other South African cities. This neutral accent is a result of the unique blend of cultural diversity that exists in the Mother City.

“Made some test calls to Liberty London and sadly didn’t manage to talk to anyone in Cape Town, but was very impressed with the assumed UK service I received anyhow. I was then informed that all my calls had in fact been answered by the Cape Town team…”
