Are you passionate about delivering outstanding customer service and helping people during challenging times?
We are recruiting for a Customer Service Advisor to join a leading retail and commercial bank, supporting customers who may be experiencing financial difficulties with their vehicle finance agreements. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong customer service skills, excellent attention to detail, and a genuine desire to make a positive difference to customers.
You will be supporting on a number of administration tasks while handling customer calls, supporting individuals who may be in early arrears or considering returning their vehicle. This means you will often be speaking with vulnerable customers, so empathy, professionalism, and a customer-first approach are essential.
Following an initial 3-month training period based fully onsite, you'll move to a hybrid working pattern of 3 days in the office and 2 days working from home.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
