We have exciting opportunities for Customer Experts to join us at Aviva. Life is full of unexpected twists and turns, but for every situation, Aviva is on hand to make things simple and keep customers protected. Joining one of our teams means you'll have a vital role to play. At Aviva, every one of our people is an excellent communicator, listener, investigator, and decision maker. Our professionals deal with customer queries with the maximum efficiency and minimum fuss, in an attractive and ever-changing environment.

As part of our growing contact centre teams, you will speak to a wide range of customers over the phone every day. As you look to answer all of their queries and provide them with the very best service, your performance won't be measured against rigid targets but against important values like 'care more'. In other words, it's the quality of the personalised service you offer that we're interested in. Our products can be really technical - there is a lot to learn but don't worry, you'll receive plenty of training and support to help our customers with their complex queries.

We have a Smart Working policy which means both your training and your role will be a mix of office based work and home working between the hours of 09:30 and 14:30. This will be agreed with your manager dependent on the role.

What we are looking for:

  • A great phone manner with the ability to focus on creating meaningful conversations by always ensuring you have empathy whilst building rapport, listening and reacting to the customers needs
  • Someone who relishes in solving problems through meticulously checking facts and asking questions and is confident in challenging blockages and finding the best way to remove these
  • Someone who enjoys working and learning with others around them to deliver fantastic customer service
  • The ability to think about what other digital methods there are for customers in order to make things simple and meet their needs even quicker
  • A positive, can-do attitude with the ability to have challenging conversations and overcome objections

What will you get for this role?

  • Starting salary of up to GBP22,000 (pro rata) depending on skills and experience
  • 25 holiday days plus bank holidays so you can take some well-earned down time (and if that's not enough, you can also buy up to 5 extra holiday days - or sell 5, if you'd prefer to boost your income)
  • We have a self-led learning culture, so you'll have lots of scope to broaden your horizons.
  • Our opportunities for progression allow you to develop in the role at your pace, eventually excelling in the role to become one of our experts in department
  • There are numerous opportunities within our business for people with the right skills, behaviours and attitude to continue to progress their career and aspirations
  • The opportunity to earn a bonus for doing a great job and going the extra mile
  • Up to 40% off loads of Aviva products, such as Motor and Travel, plus up to 15% off for friends and family
  • A generous pension (we'll put at least 8% minimum into your pot)
  • Discounts on things like cinema tickets, groceries, clothing and electronics
  • Volunteering days with your team, so you can give back together
  • Discounted healthcare membership to help you take good care of yourself
  • Full training and ongoing support will be provided
