The post holder will deal with all customer contacts in a professional and courteous manner, taking full ownership of enquiries to ensure effective and timely resolution, including supporting complaint resolution where issues arise. Customer requests must be responded to within specific contractual and procedural timescales to ensure agreed KPIs and SLAs are consistently met. All jobs must be accurately recorded within the Helpdesk system, including raising, assigning, progressing, and completing tasks, to ensure services are delivered in the most efficient and effective way.
The role requires strict adherence to relevant policies, procedures, approval processes, and working practices to maintain compliance for audit purposes. A clear understanding of individual contract obligations is essential in order to eliminate potential administrative errors. Engineer attendance must be monitored daily through regular liaison with engineers and subcontractors to identify and prevent potential breaches to job completion times. The post holder will be responsible for achieving call handling targets and quality standards at all times by providing knowledgeable, confident responses that aim to exceed customer expectations and support contract delivery.
Incidents must be monitored, actioned, and escalated appropriately to ensure service levels are maintained, with key stakeholders kept informed of job progress through to resolution. The role also involves actively identifying opportunities to improve ways of working to enhance both customer and colleague experience.

The role requires a strong team player who is cooperative, supportive, and willing to share knowledge and expertise, while also being able to work independently using their own initiative.
The post holder must be a confident user of IT systems, including Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, with good numerical reasoning skills. They should be well organised, flexible, and capable of managing multiple competing demands while delivering tasks accurately and on time. A logical approach to problem-solving, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to remain calm under pressure are essential. Strong communication skills are required to interact effectively at all levels, alongside the ability to listen attentively and probe for information to ensure accuracy.
