Job overview
AXA Global Healthcare is excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a Customer Retention Sales Advisor to build a rewarding career within our organisation. If you take pride in helping customers, overcoming objections, and finding solutions, this role is perfect for you. You’ll be engaging directly with individual customers to ensure their satisfaction and continued loyalty to their insurance policies. This role not only allows you to make a real difference for our customers but also offers the potential to significantly increase your earnings through monthly commission. Join our retention team, where you’ll be responsible for retaining customers at renewal and throughout the year, handling queries related to premiums and cancellation issues. In addition to your base salary, you’ll earn a monthly commission based on renewals.
Key responsibilities

You’ll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future. Away from home means attending the office, visiting clients or attending industry events.
Working hours & shift pattern
You’ll work full time, 37.5 hours per week Monday to Friday, from 9am to 5pm.
Your skills & experience
* Experience in a customer‑facing role, either in person or phone based, is essential.
* Excellent attention to detail, negotiation and relationship building skills.
* Ability to connect with a variety of people over the phone and via email, translating complex information in a simple way.
* Customer focused, with the ability to show empathy and build rapport, listening and assessing situations quickly whilst conducting yourself in a professional manner.
* Motivated, resilient and ambitious with a determination to succeed.
* Highly adaptable to change and managing multiple priorities.
* It would be advantageous to have experience working in a sales or retention role within a target‑driven FCA regulated environment.
