What you'll need to succeed.

As a Customer Service Specialist, you’ll be working within our customer contact centre, working almost fully remotely alongside other like-minded customer focused people. In this role, you’ll be taking calls and answering e-mails primarily (spending around 40% of your time on the phones), providing exceptional end-to-end service to our customers who use and/or generate renewable energy at home. As you progress, you’ll also work on technical tasks to proactively keep accounts healthy, for example resolving billing issues for customers.

You’ll be focused when it comes to taking full ownership and accountability for any problems your customer may have, whilst finding ways to help them manage their account in a more self-sufficient way (promoting our digital services, Smart meters). As part of the role, you’ll support customers with a variety of queries such as: taking meter readings, understanding bills and energy use, technical queries and complaints.

You’ll be passionate when it comes to delivering quality customer service and exceeding targets, as well as maintaining and growing our Trust Pilot rating so that prospective customers can see the benefits of joining Good Energy.

We’re proud to have created a role and culture that enables remote working. As we’re a big team, working in a remote environment, we support in structuring and allocating workloads across our squads, with your time split between taking calls, answering emails and administrative tasks.

We offer full training with our industry experts before you start and throughout your journey and a 16 week plan to support you in becoming successful in your role. We don’t expect you to have all the answers straight away, so we’ve got an abundance of resources to help - all you’ll need to do is use your initiative, determination and problem-solving skills to find the answers.
