About the Role

This role sits within a structured, SLA-driven Customer Support Hub delivering multi-channel service and operational execution across phone, chat, email, and back-office workflows.

This is not a script-based or volume contact centre role. You are expected to understand policy, apply judgement, and manage complex customer interactions with composure and clarity.

You will own customer cases across channels while maintaining full utilisation through structured administrative execution during non-live periods. Performance is measured across quality, SLA adherence, documentation accuracy, and operational productivity.

Only candidates with demonstrated excellence in multi-channel support environments will be considered.

Key Responsibilities

Multi-Channel Customer Ownership

  • Manage inbound phone, live chat, and email enquiries from first contact through resolution or structured escalation
  • Apply policy confidently and explain decisions clearly without reliance on scripts
  • Maintain control of complex or emotionally charged conversations
  • Ensure consistent service quality across all communication channels

Hybrid Operations Execution

  • Process back-office work including claims administration, triage, and manual case filing
  • Maintain audit-ready documentation in our ticketing system and associated systems
  • Balance live customer demand with structured administrative throughput
  • Identify and flag process gaps, documentation risks, or compliance concerns

Operational Excellence

  • Meet or exceed SLAs, QA benchmarks, and productivity expectations
  • Follow SOPs, compliance requirements, and escalation frameworks
  • Maintain high case accuracy with minimal rework

Collaboration & Escalation

  • Exercise sound judgement on resolution versus escalation
  • Escalate complex, sensitive, or out-of-scope cases appropriately
  • Protect compliance and regulatory standards in all interactions

SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

What you will bring

  • 3+ years experience in a multi-channel customer support environment with measurable SLA targets
  • Demonstrated experience handling complex or sensitive cases independently
  • Proven ability to switch between phone, chat, email, and administrative tasks without quality loss
  • Strong written communication and documentation capability
  • Experience operating within regulated, compliance-driven, or policy-based environments

Candidates who rely heavily on scripts, struggle with structured written communication, or require close supervision in policy interpretation will not proceed.

Highly regarded:

  • Experience in insurance, fintech, travel, or regulated environments
  • Familiarity with Zendesk or similar case management tools
  • Exposure to SLA-driven operational environments
  • Additional language proficiency beyond English is highly regarded and may be utilised to support regional customer demand.

PROFICIENCIES AND ATTRIBUTES

What you will have

  • Clear and controlled verbal communication
  • Strong written clarity and structured documentation
  • Attention to detail
  • Operational discipline
  • Time management and workload prioritisation
  • Emotional composure under pressure
  • Accountability and reliability

Key Initiatives

  • Consistent SLA compliance across all channels
  • High QA performance with minimal corrective feedback
  • Clear, concise, and defensible case documentation
  • Sound escalation judgement
  • Full utilisation across channel demand fluctuations
