“The factor we found quite interesting was our staff retention rates. I think the norm in customer service centres is around 15% turnover, but what we’ve experienced in the past four years in our service is that it’s about 5%, which is very low. Therefore, what we found was the staff retention by being located in Newcastle is very, very strong.”
