Davies are currently recruiting people who are passionate about excellent customer service and helping people in their time of need. We are looking for a Customer Relations Consultant to join our team in Preston who will act as a central point of contact for internal, and external customers in the resolution of complaints. We're looking for confident people who remain calm under pressure and have experience of dealing with difficult conversations. Being able to resolve an issue for a customer from start to end is a rewarding feeling, so we would like to hear from anyone with transferable skills who has experience with customer facing roles and telephone/written communication.

What will your day look like:

  • Acknowledging and investigating new complaints (Tier 1); introducing yourself to the customer/policyholder, and letting them know you are now personally managing the situation for them by telephone
  • You then have the autonomy and responsibility to coordinate with all areas of the business to resolve the situation for the customer, so you'll be a proactive person eager to get involved with other teams to make things happen and take action
  • Resolving complaints and issuing FRL (Final Response Letters), post calling the customer / policyholder with the resolution of their complaint
  • Responding to queries from the operational team
  • Any other reasonable duties assigned by one of our Team Managers or Operations Manager

Knowledge and Abilities:

  • Although we prefer those with a good level of previous industry experience, it's not essential as we offer full support and training
  • You do need to have a high level of written communication, as high-volume creation of accurate emails and letter writing is part of this role
  • We value transferable skills and qualities and focus on what you can bring to the role
  • Understand the value of delivering great customer service
  • Ability to deal with challenging conversations confidently and calmly
  • Delivering outcomes including adapting a sensitive approach where required
