Delivering exceptional customer care, you will handle unscripted calls from our customers on a range of queries regarding their Savings accounts. The work you do is meaningful, as you assist our customers not only over the phone but also by the administrative tasks you will complete.

Our ethos within the Customer Service Centre is putting our customers first and getting things right for them first time. We believe excellence can’t be rushed. So that our customers experience the highest level of service possible we do not set our colleagues deadlines to resolve queries.
