Hi! We're UW.We’re on a mission to take the headache out of utilities by providing them all in one place. One bill for energy, broadband, mobile and insurance and a whole lot of savings!
We’re aiming to double in size as we help more people to stop wasting time and money. Big ambitions, to be delivered by people like you.
Got your attention? Read on…
We put people first. It’s all about you..
We’re looking for a customer-focused individual with experience working in a debt recovery role, ideally for another energy supplier or as part of a team which helps vulnerable customers get back on track with their priority bills.
* We are looking for someone with strong customer call centre experience that feels satisfaction from resolving a customer issue.
* Understand vulnerability and how to speak to and help people going through a difficult time financially
* A caring and compassionate individual who is empathetic with people in tough situations
* The ability to take ownership of a problem and see it through to resolution
* The ability to think differently about problems of all types, challenge assumptions, and create new solutions
We work together. Your team and the people you will work with…
You will be part of the Inbound Customer Service team within the Payment Solutions Department of UW. Our three dedicated teams support vulnerable customers by handling inbound calls and providing the assistance they need.
We deliver progress. What you’ll do and how you will make an impact.
We’re here to help people get on top of their UW bills by acting as the point of contact for customers who have fallen into our debt process and providing solutions to get them back on track.
This isn’t a role for the faint-hearted. No two customers, problems, or resolution journeys are the same. You will be empowered to provide customers with support, advice and the peace of mind that their current issue can be resolved.
* You’ll be solving customers’ problems from start to finish
* You’ll be contacting customers to help resolve ongoing payment issues on their account
* You’ll conduct health checks for repayment arrangements and advise on any payment revisions/amendments which need to be made
* You’ll ensure that customers with repayment arrangements are comfortable with their plans
* You’ll identify vulnerable customers and offer additional support to them, including referrals to citizens advice or debt charities where appropriate
So why pick UW?
We’ve got big ambitions, so there are plenty of challenges. There are also a lot of benefits:
* An industry benchmarked salary. We’ll share it during your first conversation.
* Share Options and a Save as You Earn scheme.
* Hybrid working, with 2 days in the office. We’re open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
* Discount on our services and a free Cashback Card.
* A matched contribution pension scheme and life assurance up to 4x your salary.
* Family-friendly policies to help you and your family thrive.
* Discounted private health insurance, access to an Employee Assistance line and a free Virtual GP.
