About this opportunity
Do you enjoy building relationships with customers and colleagues and are looking for genuine career opportunities? Then there's a role here for you!
We support their needs (whatever they are) driven by a clear purpose to Help Britain Grow with Purpose.
As a Customer Advisor you’ll be handing complex enquiries. You'll need experience of speaking to customers, and have a compassion and a desire to do the right thing for them.
We put the customer at the heart of everything we do and will provide great training* to enable you to resolve calls by taking responsibility and providing first touch resolution whenever possible.
[*Training is full time for 8-10 weeks working from our modern Edinburgh city centre office, leading to the hybrid role.]
This vacancy is based in our Bereavement Team where you’ll primarily focus on dealing with customer queries by telephone or completing a number of core admin tasks.
- You'll learn to act with skill and diligence - treating customers sensitively and caring about helping them move forward with their futures.
- You'll possess good attention to detail and grow the confidence to spot and call out areas we can improve our customers' journeys and experiences
- You’ll enjoy collaborating closely with colleagues, adding to a caring environment where all colleagues feel encouraged and valued.
- You’ll be prepared to work hard with your passion for delivering excellent customer service
Why Lloyds Banking Group
At Scottish Widows we provide critical services to millions of Lloyds Banking Group’s Life, Pensions, Investments and General Insurance customers.
Join us and, as well as making a difference to customers, you’ll enjoy a fulfilling career where you’re free to be yourself. Great colleagues, transforming workspaces, hybrid working and a wide variety of career opportunities – you’ll find them all here.
What you’ll need
You'll want to put customers first - taking ownership of their queries, establishing rapport quickly and providing the highest level of customer experience.
You will be comprehensively trained on our systems and procedures, but we are looking for candidates who can demonstrate empathy and prioritise the needs of a vulnerable customer.
It's a role that suits people who take ownership of personal development and can adapt to change as well as learn about products and follow processes.
About working for us
Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms.
We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture.

And we’re disability confident. So if you’d like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know
We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:
- A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
