About the role

This is an entry-level role for someone who wants to start a career in operations at a financial services firm. You'll join our UK Customer Operations team and train to become a fully competent front-line agent, supporting customers across our personal loans, credit cards and car finance. That covers everything from general service queries to more intricate financial support situations. By taking ownership of every enquiry from first contact to final resolution, you will not only deliver exceptional customer outcomes but also provide actionable feedback and insights to help improve our automated tools and AI-driven customer journeys

You’ll be based in our Chatham office three days a week and work two weekend days a month (one Saturday and one Sunday), with a day in lieu the week before so you never work more than five days in a week.

What you’ll be doing

  • Resolving general customer service and financial support queries across any one of our products in either loans, cards or car finance over multiple channels, following established processes
  • Owning each enquiry from first contact to resolution, or escalating it to the right place when it needs to go further
  • Supporting customers in financial difficulty or in vulnerable situations: listening actively, asking the right questions to understand their circumstances, and finding the right support option for them
  • Keeping conversations on track while building rapport and trust, so every outcome is both positive for the customer and compliant
  • Meeting your targets for customer satisfaction, quality and compliance by following procedures carefully and using judgement where a customer’s situation calls for it, and logging every interaction accurately for audit and learning
  • Using AI and digital tools to resolve queries faster and more accurately
  • Feeding back blockers, process gaps and recurring issues to the relevant teams, and taking part in process reviews that improve our knowledge base, training resources and AI systems
  • Keeping up with product, system and process changes, acting on coaching and feedback, and sharing what you learn with colleagues

What we’re looking for

Essential

Clear, empathetic communication, both spoken and written. You can adapt to the person in front of you and explain something complicated in plain English

The ability to learn quickly, pick up new products and procedures, and act on coaching

Good organisation: you can manage several tasks at once and follow a structured process accurately

Sound judgement, and the willingness to speak up when a customer isn’t getting a good outcome

Comfort with digital tools and picking up new technology, including AI-driven platforms

Availability to work from our Chatham office three days a week and two weekends a month (where you will work from home)

Nice to have

Experience in a contact centre or another customer-facing role, particularly in financial services would be a definite plus but it is not essential for this role.

A habit of spotting where a process could work better and suggesting how
