ARC Europe France has opened recruitment for a temporary customer relations role at its facility in Lyon Vaise, targeting candidates interested in automotive assistance and roadside mobility services.
The position requires handling inbound communications from drivers facing mechanical failures or accidents on the road. According to company hiring details, the role centers on analyzing distress situations, dispatching local service providers such as towing and repair networks, and arranging replacement vehicles or alternative travel options. Staff operate in a multilingual environment where English proficiency is considered an asset, though specific prior experience in customer service is not strictly mandatory given that internal training is provided upon hiring.
Operating out of the Lyon Vaise district, the full-time position comes with a starting gross monthly salary of €1,900, supplemented by a 13th-month bonus and shift majorations. Work schedules vary between 7:00 AM and 9:30 PM, requiring employees to work one weekend out of every two, with schedules published six weeks in advance. Additional compensation benefits include meal vouchers, health and disability insurance coverage, and either full reimbursement for public transit passes or a dedicated transport premium.
Daily Responsibilities and Operational Scope
As part of a 350-employee workforce based in France, customer service agents act as the primary point of contact for motorists in distress. Daily operations involve diagnosing vehicle incidents over the phone, coordinating with a vast network of technical service providers, and tracking complex assistance files from the initial call until the driver successfully resumes their journey.
Management notes that the team handles a broad portfolio of clients, ranging from major automobile manufacturers and long-term vehicle leasing firms to insurance brokers, car-sharing enterprises, and large corporate vehicle fleets. The role demands strong analytical skills, active listening, and a calm demeanor under pressure when managing urgent roadside situations.
