Introduction

We are proud to partner with a leading digital services platform to build a new team of Customer Engagement Specialists.

As a Customer Engagement Specialist, you will proactively engage with prospective and active customers to support their journey with the platform. Through outbound conversations, you will help applicants complete their onboarding, encourage newly onboarded customers to become active, support customers at risk of disengagement, and help existing customers navigate compliance and behavioural requirements.

This is a relationship-led role where the quality of the conversation matters. You will build rapport quickly, understand individual circumstances, identify barriers and use effective communication, education and influencing skills to encourage positive outcomes.

As this is a brand-new line of business, successful candidates will have the opportunity to help shape and develop the operation as it evolves.
