By being proactive, approachable and helpful, you'll set the tone for the 5-start customer service we aspire for our Customer Experience teams to consistently deliver. And it's not just about delivering great service to our existing customers. We're looking for someone who is proactive and full of great ideas to help us extend our reach and drive higher footfall into our surgery!
