We’d love you to bring your enthusiasm for continuous improvement as we’ll be looking to you to help us understand why our customers are calling, to identify contact themes or emerging issues and to use these insights so we can improve our online tools, processes and services.

 

A key part of this role includes answering calls and emails from our customers on a range of topics we regulate. You’ll also use insights to help us improve our overall customer experience.
