📋 Description

• Manage and develop a team of team leaders overseeing a 50-strong remote customer service team, setting clear performance expectations and fostering high performance under pressure. • Work closely with the Customer Experience and QA teams on customer journey optimisation, process improvement, and automation initiatives - ensuring the customer service team's insights and frontline experience feed directly into these efforts. • Collect and analyse customer feedback (e.g., surveys, reviews) alongside the Customer Experience team to identify pain points and opportunities to enhance the overall experience. • Track and improve key service metrics, such as Net Promoter Score (NPS), customer satisfaction, and customer effort score, driving quality of service across the team. • Collaborate with marketing, product, and technology teams to ensure all customer touchpoints (website, booking platform, support) align with customer needs and expectations. • Develop communication strategies to improve how customers are informed about delivery updates, service disruptions, and issue resolutions. • Identify opportunities to introduce new services, tools, or processes that enhance the customer experience, working with the relevant teams to bring them to life. • Support initiatives to provide customers with educational content (e.g., how-to guides, FAQs) to improve self-service options and reduce the need for support. • Liaise with courier partners (DHL, FedEx, UPS) to ensure they provide services that meet or exceed customer expectations.
