What You Will Do

You will handle repair enquiries by phone, email and online channels, accurately diagnosing repair issues and arranging appointments with the appropriate trade teams. You'll work closely with operational colleagues, housing teams and support services to ensure customers receive a seamless service, while maintaining accurate records and meeting key performance targets.
