Customer Support Team Leader
Permanent | £32,572.95 - £37,307.25
The Customer Support team is at the core of One Utility Bill. As one of our Customer Support Team Leaders, your determination, dedication, and personal approach will give our team and our customers confidence that you will get right to the root of their problem.
By taking on this role, you will be expected to work on Customer Support tasks, as well as leading the team by assigning tasks, improving processes, and ensuring KPIs are hit.
A little bit about us
We are a tech business that bundles household bills into one fixed monthly payment. One payment means easier finances, less time on the phone to suppliers, and less admin. It’s a game changer.
It’s also a gorgeous place to work. Everybody gets stuck in to make things work, the team will make you feel welcome from day one, and the office is near some pretty great pubs.
What you’ll be doing
Our Customer Support team is on the frontline, making this a role for the cool, calm, and collected. Our customers rely on us to ensure that all of their utilities are out of sight, and out of mind, so when things go wrong, this can impact their everyday lives. This means you’ll face plenty of challenges, from frustrated and upset customers to unexpected issues, so you will need a lot of patience and genuine empathy to help put a smile back on our customers’ faces.
As a Team Leader, you will be responsible for managing a small team within the Customer Support team. This will involve live coaching, completing 121’s, delegating tasks, and ensuring that your team is performing to the best of their ability so that monthly KPIs are hit. Your composure, communication, and organizational skills will allow you to prepare your team for high volumes of inbound calls, emails, and live chats, and any potential challenges you may face.
You’ll be part of a great team, who will support you as you gain experience in handling a wide variety of queries. You will report to the manager of the Customer Support team, who will help you develop your leadership and management skills. Our phone lines are open between 8am and 6pm Monday to Saturday (rotating Saturday shifts roughly 1 in 4).
