Spectrum Continues to Add Jobs at its Spectrum Mobile Call Center in Rotterdam

Spectrum announced today it continues to hire for 200 new jobs at its Spectrum Mobile™ call center in Rotterdam. The new positions are in addition to 200 jobs added last year, as Spectrum Mobile grew rapidly to 1.1 million lines during the fourth quarter of 2019. The call center is expected to employ 500 local residents by the end of 2021.

Spectrum Mobile call center representatives provide comprehensive service, ranging from billing and account management to technical support and data transfer to a new device. Customer service representative roles offer competitive starting wages of $16.50 per hour as part of Charter’s commitment to a $20 minimum wage in 2022; comprehensive health benefits; a market-leading, company-matched 401(k) savings plan; career development potential; and complimentary and discounted Spectrum services.

“Spectrum Mobile customer service roles offer talented, hard-working local employees rich career-growth opportunities,” said Joe Ploof, Senior Director of Mobile Customer Service. “Having surpassed 1 million lines, and following the promotion of 8% of our current team members for providing great customer service, we’re hiring now for 200 additional roles at our call center in Rotterdam.”
