Customer Support Specialist

Do you have a natural ability to make people feel comfortable and genuinely listened to?

If you enjoy talking to people, building relationships and making a real difference every day, this Customer Support Specialist role could be the perfect fit.

We're recruiting for a fast-growing and ambitious business looking to expand their friendly team with a compassionate Customer Support Specialist. This is much more than a typical customer service role - you'll be supporting customers who have already enquired about claiming a government benefit, helping them take the first step towards accessing the financial support they may be entitled to.

A genuinely rewarding role where you'll finish each day knowing you've helped someone access support that could make a real difference to their life.

What will you be doing as a Customer Support Specialist?

• Speaking with customers over the phone throughout the day, handling inbound enquiries and following up warm leads (no cold calling)
• Building trust and rapport with older customers, making them feel comfortable, supported and understood
• Clearly explaining the service and answering questions with patience and empathy
• Handling objections confidently and guiding customers through the next steps
• Managing your own pipeline of enquiries using the CRM system
• Booking suitable customers into appointments with the Claims Processing team

We would LOVE to hear from you if you have the following skills and experience:

Whether you've worked as a Customer Service Advisor, Customer Experience Advisor, Contact Centre Advisor, Call Centre Advisor, Telesales Executive, Appointment Setter or in another telephone-based customer service role, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll have:

• A confident, engaging and friendly telephone manner
• The ability to quickly build rapport and gain people's trust
• Clear, easy-to-understand communication skills
• A kind, compassionate and patient approach
• Confidence using a CRM system and managing your own workload
• A positive attitude and a genuine desire to help people

• £26,000 - £30,000 salary
• Monday 9am-6pm, Tuesday - Friday 9am-5pm
• 20 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
• Optional overtime paid at time and a half
• Full training and ongoing coaching
