- Chasing the return of applications arising from quotes and actively seek to optimise conversion of quotes to applications, handling any queries with Under-Writing teams in a collaborative manner
- Actively working with Brokers and Intermediaries, Business Development Mangers, and the Customer Services Team to continuously improve the service experience
- Ensuring all appropriate legislative, regulatory and internal process and procedure knowledge is developed and maintained identifying, reporting, and resolving any breaches and ensuring that the correct identity checks are undertaken to verify the caller
- Managing and resolving customer complaints: identifying complaints, investigating where appropriate and resolving where possible including complex technical queries at point of early resolution, ensuring any complaints dealt with are logged correctly
Who we're looking for:
- Experience within a telephone based role within a financial services organisation
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
- Understanding of how to use outlook packages
- Demonstrate skills in terms of influencing customers and overcoming objections
- Have an understanding of our competitors, customers and markets and their relative importance.

- Participate in our electric car scheme, which offers employees the option to hire a brand-new electric car through tax efficient salary sacrifice
- There are the many discounts we offer – both for our own products and at a range of high street stores and online
