Are you ready to start or grow your career in a role where every day is different? We’re excited to be recruiting for a Customer Hub Assistant to join us at Bron Afon Community Housing.
We’re looking for someone positive, resilient and enthusiastic who enjoys helping people and can bring energy to a busy customer-focused environment. In this role, you’ll support customers over the phone, by email and face to face, so you’ll need to be confident communicating with different people and able to handle sensitive or emotionally challenging situations with professionalism, kindness and understanding.
You’ll be at your best when you can stay calm under pressure, listen carefully and show empathy for customers who may be experiencing difficult or vulnerable situations. We want someone who can see things from the customer’s point of view and make people feel heard, respected and supported.
You’ll need to feel confident working independently, while also enjoying being part of a friendly team and collaborating with colleagues across the organisation. We really value the energy, connection and support that comes from working together in the office, sharing ideas in person and creating a positive, supportive and fun working environment. If you’re someone who enjoys connecting with others and being part of a team, this could be a brilliant role for you.
