Job Brief
Customer Operations Team Leaders are the backbone of our Customer Operations team, ensuring everything runs like a well‑oiled machine! As a Team Leader, you’ll be the go‑to person for a group of Executives, providing guidance, support and motivation.

Our team interacts with external parties, including financial service providers and solicitors, as well as our customers.
