It has brought 30 new jobs into Sigma\u2019s South African division which will support the Vanquis in-house team and adds to the 120 people successfully actioning early collections on behalf of Vanquis.<\/p>\n<p>Sigma began working with Vanquis in 2011 as one of the company\u2019s first major link ups soon after it was founded. Over the past 10 years Sigma has provided UK-based Vanquis with collections services from its operation in Cape Town.<\/p>\n<p>Gary Gilburd, CEO of Sigma Connected said: \u201cThis is a really important milestone for our decade-long partnership with Vanquis. Not only has the last ten years been a big success, but we have grown together and both businesses have thrived since 2011.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s another proud moment for us to be taking on even more work from Vanquis and we know our first-class offshoring capability will continue to be a perfect match for them and their clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have put together a small but extremely professional team in Cape Town who will operate things on the customer service side and they have already hit the ground running alongside the existing team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Deborah Green, Customer Operations Director at Vanquis added: \u201cIt is wonderful to be celebrating ten years working alongside Sigma Connected and to mark that milestone by working together on another new contract.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are the perfect extension of our team and are trusted to give an exceptional service to our growing number of customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the Sigma Connected Group and its services readers can visit www.sigmaconnected.com\/za<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/cape-towns-sigma-connected-signs-vanquis-contract\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republish for Free Republish This Story Republish our articles for free, online or in print, under a Creative Commons license.
