Job Description:

We’re working in partnership with Nucleus Financial to find a Customer Service Manager to lead the Key Accounts team at Nucleus.

This is a full-time, permanent opportunity offering a starting salary of £45,000 upto £50,000 DOE.

As Customer Service Manager, you’ll take a strategic lead in managing a high-performing service team that supports some of Nucleus’ most important clients. This is a people-focused, forward-thinking role where you’ll shape the future of service delivery creating meaningful change, building strong relationships, and ensuring an exceptional customer experience, every time.

You’ll be a key part of the wider service leadership team, working collaboratively with stakeholders across the business to drive improvements and support our mission to build the best retirement-focused platform in the UK.

In this role, you’ll:

• Lead and manage a team supporting Key Accounts, ensuring service delivery is consistently excellent.
• Take a strategic view of service performance, using insight and data to identifying trends, setting goals to help shape improvements.
• Building and maintaining trusted relationships with internal stakeholders and external clients.
• Communicate effectively across all levels, providing clear updates, feedback and direction.
• Coach, mentor and develop team members through 1:1s, performance reviews and tailored support.
• Managing team priorities and capacity while maintaining service levels and performance standards.
• Handle escalated issues and complex cases, seeing them through to resolution with ownership and care.
• Provide root cause analysis and contribute to the development of long-term solutions.
• Supporting recruitment, onboarding and team engagement strategies
• Support wider service initiatives and champion continuous improvement across the department.
• Contributing to strategic projects and initiatives, representing the customer voice and ensuring service excellence is embedded throughout.

A bit about you:

You're the person others come to when they need clarity, motivation or a clear plan of action. You’re as passionate about service as you are about people and thrive in fast-paced, high-responsibility environments.

You’re confident leading with purpose and enjoy being both hands-on and strategic — ready to tackle challenges head-on while developing others along the way.

What we are looking for;

• Proven experience managing a team in a customer service or operations environment.
• A strong understanding of what great service looks like and how to embed that across a team.
• Experience in the pensions, platform or financial services sector (preferred but not essential).
• A background in stakeholder management and the ability to communicate at all levels.
• A track record of coaching and developing individuals for high performance.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to juggle deadlines and shifting priorities.
• Experience with escalations, root cause analysis, and complaint resolution.
• A strategic mindset, with the ability to think ahead and drive continuous improvement.

Technical skills:

• Strong Microsoft Office skills (especially Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook).
• Experience working with customer service or CRM platforms.
• Comfortable using reporting tools and data insights to inform decision-making.

What’s in it for you?

We offer a generous benefits package focused on the things that really matter, including:

• Competitive salary & bonus
• Enhanced pension contributions
• Paid time off for emergencies
• Health and wellbeing initiatives
• Enhanced parental leave
• Flexible and hybrid working options
