Thousands of families across the country rely on our client for a safe, affordable home. And as the housing crisis deepens, the work they do has never been more important.

It's this belief - that everyone deserves a place to call home - that drives everything they do. Together, they find new ways to understand and champion their customers, support them and drive positive change.

For a career that means more and makes a meaningful impact on society, this is the place to be.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Our client is looking for a customer-focused, curious and resilient Complaints Resolution Partner to join their busy Complaints team. This is a role where you can genuinely make a difference - supporting customers when things haven't gone as expected and helping turn difficult moments into positive outcomes.

You’ll investigate issues thoroughly, working closely with contractors and internal teams to understand what happened. Your clear, well-written responses will reflect empathy, accuracy and professionalism, helping customers feel heard and supported.

You’ll be working in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple cases at once and keeping customers updated throughout the process. You’ll need to work confidently to regulated timescales and ensure they remain compliant with Housing Ombudsman requirements - all while maintaining a friendly, calm and solution-focused approach.

By following their policies and using your insight to spot learning opportunities, you’ll contribute to fair outcomes, continuous improvement and stronger relationships with their customers. Your work won’t just resolve complaints - it will help shape better services for the future.

If you’re empathetic, organised, a strong communicator and passionate about providing great customer experiences, they’d love to hear from you.

SALARY

The spot salary for the Complaints Resolution Partner post is £31,805 per annum for applicants who fully meet the requirements of the post. If you’re still developing some of the skills or experience, you can start at a salary 5% or 10% below the spot rate, with clear support and progression opportunities to reach the full amount.

ABOUT YOU

You’ll have extensive complaint handling experience in a regulated environment, dealing with stage 1 and/or stage 2 complaints including the awareness of the regulations set out by an Ombudsman.

You’ll also have exceptional customer service skills, with the ability to listen attentively, empathise with customers, and respond impartially.

As they adhere to a regulated process with defined timescales for handling complaints, you’ll be process-oriented, driven by a passion for problem-solving and ensuring issues are resolved within given timeframes.

Strong influencing and stakeholder engagement skills are essential, as you’ll collaborate with other departments to investigate circumstances and conduct thorough root cause analysis.

Meticulous attention to detail, accuracy, and excellent verbal and written communication skills are crucial as they strive to resolve complaints with a positive outcome.

The successful applicant will be subject to pre-employment checks, such as DBS and social media screening, before an offer is confirmed.
