Customer Support Specialist - Hybrid & Career Growth

Role Overview

You’ll begin your journey in one of our branches, providing face‑to‑face support to our customers. You’ll learn, grow and develop within an inclusive organisation with genuine values focused on putting people first, making a difference to customers, businesses and communities. Over time, there will be opportunities to transition into a range of roles such as helping customers over the phone from home, continuing to deliver outstanding service remotely (we also connect via social media, web‑chat and remote advice video calls).

Career Path

Grow Your Career with Our Skill Progression Framework. At Lloyds Banking Group, we don’t just offer jobs – we offer careers. We believe in building strong foundations, which is why we ask all new colleagues to spend a minimum of 12 months in a customer service role, mastering new skills, dealing with more complex customer needs, and earning valuable accreditations through our Skill Progression Framework. This helps you develop a deep understanding of our customers, our services, and the values that drive us. Once you’ve built that foundation, we’ll support you in exploring a wide range of career opportunities across the Group in more specialist areas including Digital, Operations, Fraud, and Financial Planning, as well as opportunities to move into leadership roles.
