Using data and insight, you will investigate service issues, conduct root cause analysis and develop robust improvement plans that deliver long-term results. You will provide regular performance reporting, support service reviews with key stakeholders and lead discussions focused on improving operational performance. The role also involves working collaboratively with Sales teams and customers to agree service expectations, monitor contractual commitments and develop joint improvement initiatives where appropriate.

You'll be highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities, and confident taking ownership of initiatives that deliver measurable improvements in customer service and operational performance.
