  What else you need to know

  One of the key objectives of our Complaints Operation is to provide a great customer experience, a key part of this is to have the right number of colleagues available to meet the varying demand of our customer contact. This means we're available when our customers need us. We recognise that many colleagues have other responsibilities outside of work and we have developed a number of shift patterns designed to provide colleagues with options which also meet business requirements

  We are operating in a hybrid working environment, meaning that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
