Customer Service Advisor- 6 month Fixed Term Contract

If you’re great with people, a Customer Service career in our Branch Network could be a great choice for you. As one of the biggest and most important teams at YBS, our Branch Network makes a huge impact on the success of our business. We always look for ways to give the best customer experience, make things more efficient and try new things. And because we’re right at the beginning of an exciting digital journey, our future has never looked more exciting - and neither has yours.

About the Role

As a Customer Service Advisor you’ll:

• Get to know our members and support them in finding the right products and services that can provide Real Help With Real Life - whether that’s saving for a gap year trip, buying a first home, or anything in between.
• Facilitate great conversations confidently through channel of choice, as you support our members in branch, over the phone and with the operation of their accounts online.
• Forget sales targets, and enjoy the freedom to do what’s right.

Here at YBS no two branches are the same, they each have their own characteristics and qualities that makes working there so special. Here is what the hiring manager had to say about Oxford Branch.

"Oxford Branch is looking forward to welcoming someone new to our small team to share our passion for delivering exceptional customer service and growing our business. As well as helping our customers in branch and over the telephone we have the opportunity to support our local community by delivering financial education sessions for children and adults.

Personal development is actively supported, and we encourage you to seek further opportunities to build your skills and capabilities. The role is varied with no two days the same, so there is the opportunity to learn something new every day.

We are located on the High Street and are in close proximity to shops, restaurants, and cafes. We are a short walk away from the train station, and close to bus stops.

You will have opportunities to network with others and you may be required to cover other branches in the South Coast area."
