Senior Customer Service Representative
1. Provide outstanding customer service to our Financial Services customers
2. An outstanding opportunity to achieve your full potential, with fully training and mentoring within a supportive and specialist team
3. This is an office-based role for the first 1 to 2 years, with the potential for hybrid working in the future
About the role
We're expanding the team and looking for four individuals to join our dedicated Customer Service team within the Financial Services division. As a Senior Customer Service Representative, you’ll be the first point of contact for customers with financial services products such as pensions, savings, and investments—many of whom have been with us for decades.
You’ll take calls and respond to emails, supporting customers through some of life’s most significant moments—from setting up withdrawals to updating details after a bereavement. The role involves interpreting figures and policy details, completing documentation accurately, and liaising with specialist teams where needed.
Working within a supportive, close-knit team, you’ll play a key part in delivering a genuinely personal service that reflects NFU Mutual’s values. You'll also help ensure compliance and customer protection by completing fraud checks, bank verifications, and complaint logging.
This isn’t a call centre, and you won’t ever be asked to follow a script when supporting our customers; instead, once fully trained, you’ll listen actively to our customers’ needs and draw on your knowledge to support them to a high standard. With the volume and complexity of calls increasing, your ability to listen, empathise and act decisively will be essential. This is a full-time office-based role due to the depth of training and collaborative nature of the team. While hybrid working may be considered after 18–24 months, you'll be in the office full-time to complete the in-depth training program, ensuring that you are fully embedded with the knowledge and confidence you’ll need to thrive.
About you
You’ll bring proven customer service experience—whether over the phone, face-to-face or both—and a genuine passion for helping people. We’re looking for someone who is resilient, detail-focused and eager to learn. You’ll be able to interpret financial and policy information confidently and communicate clearly with a wide range of customers, including those with additional needs.
You'll also need to demonstrate:
4. A strong customer focus and natural empathy
5. A learning mindset and the ability to absorb complex information
6. Confident when interpreting and communicating financial information, such as reading large numbers correctly to customers. – Essential
7. Excellent attention to detail in both verbal and written communication
8. Flexibility and adaptability to handle a variety of queries
9. Team spirit—supporting colleagues and contributing to a positive working environment
10. Resilience under pressure, especially during busy periods or emotionally challenging calls
Please note: this role is full-time and based in the office for at least the first 18–24 months.
At NFU Mutual, we support an inclusive workplace and value all the differences that make us unique. We celebrate the creativity and innovation that comes from diverse perspectives and experiences and share a common vision of doing the right thing for our customers and employees.
We recognise that some candidates may experience barriers during the recruitment process. So, we encourage candidates to discuss any adjustments or accommodations they need to be the best they can be throughout our recruitment process.
