Job description

Triodos Bank finances projects that benefit people and the planet. We’re committed to ethical sustainability, transparency, and high-quality service. We welcome candidates who share these values and want to drive positive change.

The Opportunity

We are recruiting a Customer Contact Co‑worker to join our vibrant, supportive, and high‑performing customer contact team at our Bristol Head Office on a fixed‑term contract until April 2027.

The overall purpose of this role is to provide exceptional customer service to both Triodos Bank’s external and internal customers with a focus and commitment to meeting team quality and performance levels.

There are excellent opportunities for learning and development and to build and progress a career in customer services within one of Europe’s leading sustainable banks. This is a full‑time opportunity and offers the benefits of flexible hybrid working. Typically, this would require 2‑3 days in our Bristol office per week, with a choice of working from home on the other days. The first 4‑6 weeks will be fully office‑based for training and induction.

Key responsibilities will require you to:

• Provide consistently high‑quality customer service.
• Speak with customers over the phone, via secure message and social media.
• Professionally manage and resolve initial queries regarding all our products and services.
• Take ownership of more complex queries, and work with the team seniors and other teams across the bank to provide the right outcome for customers.
• Provide internet and mobile banking support for customers.
• Work effectively as part of a team to deliver an overall exceptional service.
• Explore vulnerabilities with customers to support inclusivity and meet the need of our diverse customer base.
• Ensure the safety of customers by working in adherence to the relevant legislation.
• Be proactive in suggesting continuous improvements in line with current process improvement methodology.

What we are looking for:

To be successful in this role you have an excellent customer focus and be passionate about delivering a high level of customer service on a consistent basis to our internal and external customers.

An excellent communicator, you will have the ability to manage handling inbound and outbound calls and responding to emails and letters, in a fast‑paced team environment.

You will need a passion for learning and development. Each day you will need to use several systems and demonstrate a strong knowledge of our diverse range of products and processes in order to find the right answers for our customers.

This role requires you to follow processes and regulations closely in line with relevant legislation to ensure the safety of customers, and therefore good attention to detail is required for this role.

Triodos Bank is proud of its culture, ethos, and ability to make a positive change in society. It is important that candidates evidence a strong commitment to Triodos Bank’s core values of sustainability and transparency, as well as the personal qualities to live these values.
