Remote, United Kingdom Sigma Connected Full time

We are seeking **experienced customer service advisors for our Prepayment Team to work from home**. You’ll be taking calls from customers, some of whom will be vulnerable, who have Gas and Electric prepayment meters and helping them with a range of queries.

**You will ideally have worked in any of the areas below**:

- Customer Service (Call Centre)
- Energy
- Financial Services
- Utilities Gas/Electric
- BPO (Business Process Outsourcing)

**You will train and work from the comfort of your own home**

- You’ll also need to be able to connect to WIFI to access our systems.
- A smartphone on a UK network (you don’t need to use your own mins/text/data)

**Day to day duties**:
The current Gas and Electric market is challenging at the moment with the 54% Price Cap increase in April ‘22 it has meant that bills have increased and many households are struggling.

We expect the Price Cap increase due in October ‘22 will push further pressure onto all utility customers and therefore we are looking for confident communicators that can advise, signpost and empower customers to manage and understand their own usage, proactively reducing this and ensuring that their bills remain affordable.

Duties could include, but not limited too:

- Billing queries (Taking meter reads, explaining bills to customers)
- Supporting customers who cannot afford to top up on their prepayment meter, discussing credit advances and agreeing debt recovery rates
- Taking ownership of customers who are off supply for gas and electric and working with support staff to arrange for emergency engineer attendance
- Successfully addressing customer energy consumption concerns, explaining consumption and energy efficiency measures that can help customers lower their bills
- Resolving complaints at first contact where possible, relating to billing errors, failed metering appointments etc
- Discussing customer vulnerability, priority service register and providing appropriate solutions/sign posting
- Gaining customer agreement for Smart meter installation and working to targets associated with this
- Identifying interest for added value aspects e.g. converting single fuel customers for dual fuel and promoting additional services such as boiler cover

**Experience**
- You need to have experience of Customer Service within a Call Centre
- It would be advantageous if you have experience of working with pre-payment meter customers but we will also provide training
- SMART meter experience would be desirable (but not expected, you will get full training)
- Confident using multiple IT alongside a telephony system in an energy environment to service customer needs and analyse account and billing information e.g. systems such as Junifer, Kraken, SAP, Ecoes, Xoserve and Outlook

**You are**:

- A confident verbal communicator and can adapt your communication approach to meet different customer needs because no 2 calls are the same
- Resilient, pragmatic and enjoy an environment of high expectation, high reward and being challenged
- Motivated either by achieving targets/bonus or by delivering great experiences and being rewarded via recognition/feedback
- Someone who thrives in a WFH environment, confident to reach out when needed for support and build relationships with team mates remotely
- Someone who flourishes taking ownership and has a passion for decision making and problem solving
