• Competitive Rewards: Enjoy above-market compensation, healthcare coverage on day one, plus one or more dependents, paid time-off with cash conversion, group life insurance, and performance bonuses


• A Collaborative Spirit: Contribute to a positive and engaging work environment by participating in company-sponsored events and activities.


• Work-Life Harmony: Enjoy the balance between work and life that suits you with flexible work arrangements.


• Career Growth: Take advantage of opportunities for continuous learning and career advancement.


• Inclusive Teamwork: Be part of a team that celebrates diversity and fosters an inclusive culture.

What You’ll Do

The Customer Support Specialist is responsible for the first-line review of customer complaints received across support channels. This role requires someone who can read a complaint carefully, correctly interpret what the customer is raising, and apply the company's complaints handling process precisely and consistently, every time. Accuracy, discipline in following procedure, and sound judgement on when to escape are essential, as triage decisions affect regulatory compliance, customer outcomes, and downstream teams such as Claims, Underwriting, and Compliance.

Key Responsibilities

• Read and review incoming complaints across all channels (Zendesk tickets, email, and complaints escalated from partners) to accurately understand the nature, severity, and root cause of each case.


• Interpret complaint content against complaints handling policy and applicable regulatory requirements (for example, internal dispute resolution timelines) to determine the correct classification and next steps.


• Triage each complaint by category (such as claims decision, policy wording, sales or mis-selling, service delivery, or billing) and by severity or priority, strictly in line with the defined process.


• Follow the complaints triage workflow in the correct sequence for every case, without skipping or reordering steps, so outcomes remain consistent and auditable.


• Log and document each complaint accurately in Zendesk (or the designated system), including classification, evidence reviewed, and actions taken.


• Escalate complaints that meet defined thresholds (regulatory risk, vulnerable customer indicators, high severity, or repeat complaints) to Compliance or the relevant specialist team within SLA.


• Identify and refer complaints that require specialist handling by Claims, Underwriting, or Legal/Compliance.


• Meet SLA turnaround times for triage and initial response on every case.


• Maintain strict confidentiality of customer and policy information at all times, in line with data handling policy.


• Flag recurring themes, unclear cases, or gaps in the triage process to the Complaints & Compliance Team Lead to support continuous improvement.

What You’ll Need

• Excellent written English comprehension: able to read a multi-paragraph complaint and accurately restate what is being alleged and what outcome is sought.


• Demonstrated ability to follow a detailed, multi-step process or checklist exactly and consistently, without skipping or reordering steps.


• Comfortable working in a rules-based, audit-driven environment where every decision must be documented and justified.


• Willingness and ability to learn a new ticketing or case management system quickly (prior Zendesk experience is not required).

Preferred, Not Required

• Prior experience in complaints handling, customer support, or a BPO environment, ideally within insurance, financial services, or another regulated industry.


• Background in QA, transaction monitoring, back-office processing, or claims adjudication at another BPO or an insurer.


• Familiarity with insurance terminology (claims, policy, underwriting).


• Experience with ticketing or CRM systems such as Zendesk.
