About this role

We're looking for a

every stage of their journey, from account queries and investigations through to debt conversations, changes of tenancy and retention when customers move premises.

You'll be trusted to make decisions that balance

customer experience, commercial outcomes and compliance, using your judgement to deliver the right resolution first time.
