Global Servicing (GS) oversees consumer travel and concierge experiences, all card customer service functions for the company’s global consumer, banking, merchant, and commercial customers, as well as the key enablement functions that power our products and services. GS provides the world’s best customer experience every day by building on Amex’s 175-year legacy of service excellence, leveraging new technologies and capabilities to drive transformation, and bringing a human touch to each customer interaction.
Do you have a passion for solving problems and creating great outcomes for both customers and the business? Is the Customer First ethos at the centre of everything you do? If you’re looking for a role that combines risk management, utilizing your network to create innovative solutions and strengthening customer relationships, Global Customer Research & Solutions could be the place for your next career move.
The Global Customer Research and Solution team, based in Brighton, is responsible for handling complaints received from Customers and Merchants in a way that is fair, consistent and timely. Additionally, we manage in-depth regulatory claims and requests from customers in respect of Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act, as well as liaising with the Financial Ombudsman to ensure full transparency and integrity.
We’re currently recruiting for a Section 75 Claim Handler to join our successful, dynamic department in a Monday to Friday fixed hours role.
Our Section 75 Claim Handlers are responsible for thoroughly investigating all sides of a claim, speaking and writing to customers to fully understand every aspect. You’ll explore all of our systems and processes, gathering evidence and liaising with other teams to determine the correct outcome. You will then communicate your findings in writing and via telephone.
The role will be very varied and the successful applicant will receive full training and support to ensure that they have the knowledge to cover all manner of claims liaising with different areas of the Blue Box – such as Disputes, FOS, GCO & Merchant Teams. As such, an inquisitive mind and a self-starting attitude is a pre-requisite.
