About Us: Helpthemove helps social housing providers, letting agents, and build-to-rent operators manage the utilities and admin around every tenancy change, cutting down on void periods and manual admin so our clients can focus on what matters.

Job Overview: As a Technical Operations Support Specialist, you will act as the human bridge between our data and our customers, translating technical and data issues into clear, reassuring answers, while maximising revenue opportunities for the business and enhancing the customer journey. This role is responsible for managing the data and processes that arise from our API integrations, ensuring issues are identified, resolved, and communicated effectively to clients and internal stakeholders, by analysing API exceptions, reporting from our energy partner, and bill validation results.

As part of the Operations team, this role combines technical analysis with direct client interaction. The successful candidate will act as a point of contact during onboarding, participate in client calls, and work closely with the Customer Service, Account Management, and Sales teams to ensure data-related issues are resolved promptly and communicated clearly. You will develop and maintain relationships with external third parties such as our energy partners, councils, and water suppliers, working with them to find better ways of collaborating — whether through council web forms or other technical integrations.

• Analysing API exceptions and reporting from our energy partner, identifying missing data to maximise conversions and revenue opportunities
• Managing council web notifications and supporting the automation of these processes
• Acting as a point of contact for clients during onboarding, and participating in client calls to resolve data-related issues
• Closing the loop with clients once issues are resolved, and feeding recurring issues back to internal teams to prevent repeat problems
• Collaborating with the Customer Service, Account Management, Sales, and Tech teams to understand data needs and ensure issues are resolved promptly and communicated clearly
• Identifying opportunities to improve processes and workflows, and supporting their implementation

• Strong data management and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail
• Effective planning and organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise a high-volume, varied workload
• A proactive attitude, with the ability to manage time efficiently and work independently or as part of a team
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Familiarity with Power BI for reviewing and using pre-existing reports and dashboards
• Previous internal and/or client-facing training experience is desirable
• A positive, can-do attitude, with a hunger to succeed and willingness to learn
