We pride ourselves on a high-quality service, often supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our society - and as one of our Customer Services Advisor you’ll ensure that we continue to deliver this incredibly important work.

The Customer Service Centre is the First Point of Contact for many of Lincolnshire County Councils Services, including Adult Care, Children’s Services, Highways, Registration & Celebratory Services, Library Services. We deliver a diverse range of services, many of which play an important part in people’s lives - whether it is carrying out a Social Care Assessment to enable a resident to stay safely at home, taking a contact to support a Child in Need or simply renewing a library book, it can be hard, but rewarding work.

We are currently recruiting Customer Service Advisors for our Children’s Team on the Lincolnshire County Council contract; In this crucial and sensitive role for Children’s’ Services, you’ll be the first point of contact for anyone that calls in to Customer Services to report concerns about a child. This will include taking calls from members of the public and professionals such as Police Officers, Nurses and School Teachers. It will be your responsibility to gather as much information and detail from the caller as possible, using your professional curiosity to fact-find information and more importantly to not take anything at face value. This will all be captured by you, written up against a framework onto our system and then passed over to Children’s Social Care. The decisions that are made for the children are based on the evidence you have gathered; so, you’ll need your clear, concise, and cool-headed communication style to provide that information.

**What you will need to do the role**

You will be dealing with calls from professionals (e.g. Police and Health Services), and from Members of the Public. The calls will be of a sensitive nature and you will be required to gather and process information efficiently and accurately.

**Where will I work?**

Our offices are based in Lincoln City Centre at Thomas Parker House and we do offer agile working opportunities once you’re settled in and fully trained. The office is perfectly situated for travel via public transport and there is a discounted car parking scheme in operation if you chose to drive.

**What hours will I work?**

Due to the nature of the role, you will need to be flexible to work between the hours of 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday. Where relevant you may be asked to work 9am to 4pm on a Saturday.

**What training will I be given?**

You will be given a full Serco Induction and then move onto service specific training; training is delivered from service matter experts from within the CSC Children’s Team, the CSC Training Team and Lincolnshire County Council.

**What we offer**:

- Competitive pension scheme; matched up to 6% and Life Insurance
