The Supporter Care Senior Officer is a key role within our Fundraising team, sitting at the heart of every supporter interaction and helping to shape the experience people have with The Royal British Legion. This is an opportunity for someone who knows what great customer care looks like and takes pride in getting the detail right.
You'll be the person colleagues turn to for guidance on complex enquiries, complaints and supporter issues, while also ensuring that day to day operations run smoothly, efficiently and to the highest standard. Working across multiple teams and with external partners, you'll help deliver a service that is professional, responsive and built around the needs of our supporters.
We're looking for someone who brings significant experience from a customer care, supporter care or customer service environment and is ready to take the next step in a senior operational role. You'll be confident managing priorities, analysing trends, improving processes and coaching colleagues to deliver consistently high standards.
Just as importantly, you'll be comfortable rolling up your sleeves when needed, whether that's resolving a challenging complaint, overseeing supporter administration, improving ways of working or supporting the delivery of key fundraising activity. You'll combine excellent judgement with a practical, solutions focused approach and understand the importance of compliance, accuracy and accountability in every interaction.
This role offers genuine variety and the chance to make a visible impact. You'll lead projects, help shape service improvements, support and develop team members, and use insight to influence how we engage with supporters in the future. It's an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys balancing people leadership with operational delivery and who thrives in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.
If you're passionate about delivering outstanding service, building strong relationships and creating positive outcomes for supporters, you'll find a role here that is both challenging and rewarding, with plenty of scope to contribute, develop and make your mark.
You will be contracted to our Haig House hub with a minimum expectation of two days per week working in person at the hub and flexibility for working remotely/at home when not on site.
Employee benefits include:
- 28 days paid holiday (plus bank holidays) increasing with service, with optional annual leave purchase scheme of up to 5 working days
- Enhanced paid maternity, paternity and adoption leave
- Generous pension scheme with employer contributions ranging from 6% to 14%, depending on length of service
