Build trusted relationships. Solve problems. Make a real difference every day.
You take pride in helping customers, building strong relationships and finding solutions when challenges arise. You're someone who stays calm under pressure, communicates with confidence and enjoys being the person people rely on when they need support.
We're looking for a Client Services Specialist to join our Winter Maintenance and Client Services team. This is an opportunity to take ownership of a portfolio of customers, become a trusted point of contact and play a key role in delivering an exceptional customer experience.

What you'll do:
- In this role, you'll take ownership of a portfolio of customers, helping ensure they receive a consistently high level of service and support throughout their partnership with Ground Control.
- Build strong, long-term relationships with customers, acting as their trusted day-to-day contact and creating positive experiences that support retention and satisfaction.
- Manage customer queries, complaints and escalations, taking ownership of issues and coordinating solutions that build confidence and trust.
- Lead regular customer review meetings, providing service updates, performance insights and clear communication around ongoing activities.
- Work closely with operational teams to resolve service issues, manage expectations and ensure customers receive timely updates when priorities change.
- Support contract renewals and account retention activities, helping maintain strong customer relationships across your portfolio.
- Identify opportunities to improve the customer experience and highlight additional services that could deliver value to customers.
- Monitor performance, maintain accurate records and produce reports that help customers and stakeholders understand service delivery and progress.
- Support colleagues across the wider Client Services team, sharing knowledge and helping resolve more complex customer enquiries when needed.
