How You’ll Play Your Part
In this role, you will focus on quality assurance and compliance within Customer Services, Resolutions, and regulatory programs. It involves independent testing and reviews, maintaining segregation of duties, call listening, administrative tasks, and working with third‑party suppliers to ensure high standards are met and correct customer outcomes are provided. You will also contribute to process improvement and stay up to date on changing regulatory requirements.
Main Accountabilities
* Reporting into the Quality Assurance Manager, you will conduct daily and timely reviews across all contact channels (phone, email, post, webforms, MMF & live chat) to ensure compliance and adherence to company policies, processes, business rules and regulations.
* As part of the Quality Assurance team, you will conduct reviews for teams within the scope of Customer Operations and provide support for cross‑company and regulatory projects, requiring flexibility between topics. Competency assessments must be passed and levels maintained to ensure that the correct accreditation is in place for the reviews that must be performed.
* You will assess interactions across a defined scope of processes and time frames to ensure that the service delivered meets the requirements and expectations of both the customer and the business. This includes considering the adequacy of the outcomes reached and recommending any remediation required when poor outcomes are identified.
* Your responsibilities include taking ownership of your recommendations, actively monitoring their progress, ensuring all related actions are completed within the agreed timeframe, and escalating issues when necessary. You will be responsible for driving the success of any actions that you have identified to ensure that these are completed either within the team or the wider business.
* You will use the findings from your reviews to suggest the best approach for future reviews, influencing the team’s overall testing strategy.
* Reviews must be completed in line with defined targets for volume and precision, providing clear, accurate, and constructive feedback on areas that would benefit from improvement.
* Working closely with the Quality Assurance Manager and stakeholders where required, you will support the creation and maintenance of a high‑performing workforce by reporting and feeding back all quality outcomes while remaining fully compliant with FCA regulations.
Continuous Improvement
* Maintaining knowledge across all in‑scope processes following any process or system updates and ensuring adherence at all times to any changes that are introduced, is a key responsibility.
* As an Outcome Testing Specialist, you will be responsible for identifying necessary changes and advocating for continuous improvement to support better customer outcomes and service, based on root cause analysis. You will contribute to the cycle of change managed through process development and recommend areas where additional training may be required.
* You will complete proactive and meaningful trend analysis to identify any emerging compliance risks, training gaps, or process shortfalls, and provide feedback and recommendations to address them. This includes considering the adequacy of controls at all stages of a process to mitigate potential harm to customers and highlighting change candidates for review and improvement.
* Proactively collaborate with colleagues from the wider business to identify potential friction points in the customer journey and suggest solutions to improve or remove them.
* Actively participate in the implementation of any changes identified through 2LOD and/or audit reviews to improve the delivery and output of the team.
Additional Topics
* Attending meetings on behalf of the team, across varying management levels, to present and share our findings and results and to highlight actions we are taking to improve these.
* Support with check the checker and competency reviews, if required, to ensure that all members of the team are performing to the optimum level.
* Regular framework reviews with recommendations for any aspects that need to be updated or new additions that need to be considered as our approach and processes evolve.

Providing Feedback
* The ability to effectively communicate the outcome of any review and the tasks performed by the team, either in writing or verbally, with colleagues and stakeholders at all levels is essential.
* Providing feedback to colleagues to support improvement in calibration sessions, both internally within the team and across the wider business with stakeholders, is a key responsibility.
