About the Role

Our purpose as an organisation is to ‘connect our communities to a better financial future’ and our Customer Service Advisors are crucial in enabling us to achieve this.

Our ethos within the Customer Service Centre is putting our customers first and getting things right for them first time. We believe excellence can’t be rushed. So that our customers experience the highest level of service possible we do not set our colleagues deadlines to resolve queries. We believe this allows each customer to be treated in a way that fits their needs, not ours.
