About this role
We're looking for a
Business Customer Resolution Agent to join a multi‑skilled team supporting customers in the energy market. This is a varied, end‑to‑end role where you'll take real ownership of customer accounts, investigate complex queries and play an active part in retaining and growing customer relationships.
You'll work as part of a
small, empowered customer pod, collectively responsible for a large portfolio of customers. Rather than handing customers between departments, you'll support them at
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.
