EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

We’re looking for a proactive and customer-focused individual to join our team as a Smart Metering Customer Support Adviser. In this role, you’ll be the first point of contact for our smart metering customers, delivering exceptional service and ensuring queries are resolved efficiently. You’ll build strong relationships with internal teams, contractors, and third parties, acting as a key liaison to drive improvements and promote the benefits of smart metering.

You’ll manage customer communications, support complaint resolution, conduct audits, and contribute to campaigns and meetings. If you’re passionate about customer service and thrive in a collaborative environment, we’d love to hear from you.

You’ll be based between our Raynesway (Derby) and STC (Coventry) site. You’ll work within our Smart Metering Team. With this being such a critical role, we’re looking for someone who can join us 37 hours a week, working Monday – Friday.

What we’re looking for

To succeed in this role, you’ll need experience working in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment. You’ll have a proven ability to manage customer cases and deliver tailored support. Familiarity with systems such as SAP, Target, and GIS is desirable, as is confidence using Microsoft Excel and working with multiple stakeholders.

We’re looking for someone who is creative, self-motivated, and passionate about delivering excellent customer service. You’ll be detail-oriented, adaptable, and able to think on your feet to solve problems. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential, along with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. You’ll be well-organised, resilient under pressure, and committed to continuous improvement—for both the customer experience and the wider business.

Skills and experience are important, but character, positivity, and a caring attitude matter too. We welcome and celebrate diverse individuals, knowing they help us better serve our communities. We seek people who get involved, want to be part of something bigger, and make a difference because they care.
