We currently have an exciting opportunity for a Customer Services Officer to join our successful in-house Homes Plus Customer Services team on a permanent basis.

We’re looking for a dedicated professional to bring our values to life and ensure our customers receive outstanding services.

The role

We have exciting opportunities for people who’ve already proved their passion for customer service (ideally handling high volumes of calls, but maybe just keeping everyone happy in a busy hospitality or retail setting). Whatever your background, you’ve learned how satisfying it can be to find the right solution to a tricky problem. And you know that customer service is the career for you.

As a top-rated organisation for social housing, Housing Plus Group is a leading provider of homes and care services that customers can trust. When you join our friendly Customer Service team, you’ll be providing the all-important help and support that maintains this trust.

You’ll be handling a wide variety of incoming customer communications via phone, email and social media. We’ll expect you to pay close attention to people’s individual needs and use all your initiative to work with other departments and ensure an effective response.

What skills and experience we are looking for:

  • Good experience of customer contact, preferably in a busy call handling environment.
  • Good IT skills, including Word and Excel, with the aptitude to learn more.
  • Clear and concise verbal and written communication.
  • A problem-solving mindset.
  • Ability to handle sensitive enquiries and difficult conversations with diplomacy.

We can offer you

The flexibility of hybrid working (after probationary period) plus a comprehensive induction programme and excellent learning opportunities; with mandatory and specialist training available. We can offer 25 days’ holiday (increasing with each year of service, up to a maximum of 30 days), bank holidays and three concessionary days over the Christmas period. We also offer the option to join our contributory pension scheme, access to a dedicated Employee Healthcare Portal, eye care vouchers and a cycle to work scheme.

About us

Housing Plus Group companies include Care Plus, Property Plus and Severn Homes.

Housing Plus Group values the diversity of its communities and aims to have a workforce that is representative of this. We create inclusive environments for our people and customers where we can be our true authentic selves. We welcome applications from all sections of our community.
