eW2W is a British Company with offices in Zona Colonial, Santo Domingo. We have recently established a new service company, handling Employment Tribunal (Labor Court) cases and are looking for a new member of staff to join us as a Mediator / Negotiator.
Before you read on, we need to cover three important points:
- First, it's really important to stress the hours for this role. The standard hours for this role will be 4am until 1pm, Monday to Friday plus half-day Saturdays. During training you will be working 8.30am until 5.30pm.
- Secondly, we will only consider people who have English as a mother-tongue language and have a high degree of communication skills, both written and spoken.
- Thirdly, this role is only open to people who are living and settled in Dominican Republic and have a Cedula. As per Dominican labor law, we will give preference to those who are Dominican nationals.
OK, so more information on the role.
Anyone who has been employed for more than 12 months in the UK has a right to take their employer to a labor court, called a Tribunal. eW2W has created a specialist web service which gathers information from unhappy employees about their cases. Each individual is then assigned to a Mediator / Negotiator who contacts the person, discusses their case, then tries to negotiate a settlement with their employer before going to court.
You will be given extensive training, provided both by our Mediation Manager and also a specialist UK Employment Law expert. After training, you will always have access to specialists with whom you can discuss cases you are handling, and get advice on the best way to proceed.
We are looking for people who have the following skills and experience:
> Fluent communication in English, both written and verbal. You will be dealing with British nationals, not Americans, and you have to understand the accent is very different;
> Negotiation skills. This is a key part of the job, and we are looking for people who have experience in negotiating - you may well have gained this in a sales role.
> Ability to work under your own initiative, and good organisational / time management skills.
> Attention to detail. These are legal cases, so it's absolutely critical that paperwork is completed correctly.
> Ability to multi-task. You will have a caseload spanning lots of different cases, so you need to be able to jump from one to the other as needed.
> Some experience or familiarity with law, ideally labor law. You don't, however, need to be familiar with how labor laws work in the UK and the Tribunal Process is in reality very similar to processes operating in the US, Canada and Dominican Republic to handle disaffected employees.
This job provides a basic salary of RD$ 25,000 per month, plus commission. We anticipate on target earnings of over RD$ 40,000 per month, with no ceiling. Healthcare contributions of 50% are also provided.
We work in a pretty colonial building very close to the Conde in the Zona Colonial and you've got lots of shops and restaurants nearby. It's a much nicer environment than a sterile call centre on an industrial park.
To apply, please send an up-to-date CV, and a covering letter specifically explaining why you think you're right for this job, to hr@ew2w.com . This job is immediately open and we would like someone to start during August 2011.
Please note that you will NOT find details of this Employment Tribunal service on eW2W's website. We will provide those who are shortlisted with details of the website for the service, so that they can do further research and understand the service more.
