At Customer Resolutions, we’re passionate about delivering a brilliant service. Every complaint is more than a challenge, it’s an opportunity to learn, improve, and make things right for our customers. When something goes wrong, we put it right. And when we see an opportunity to prevent it happening again, we take it!
As a Specialist Service Consultant, you’ll play a vital role in shaping an exceptional experience for every customer. If you genuinely care about people, love listening, and thrive on solving problems, this could be the perfect role for you. We’re looking for curious, confident individuals who can understand what has happened and work with customers to reach the right outcome - first time, every time.
We are currently recruiting UK-wide for our next induction dates of 16th February and 9th March. Although we are recruiting for our primary site locations, we would also welcome applications from talented colleagues who work remotely and require the support of a hybrid exception. See further details below.
If you are internal and have experience handling complaints within the 3-business day process, we’d love to hear from you.
The initial training will last 3 weeks. It’s essential to ensure you are set up for success, so no time off will be permitted during this time. Whether you’re new to Customer Resolutions or bring experience, this training is key to your development, so this phase will include 4 face-to-face days per week at designated locations. Expenses will be covered if travel is required.
Travel to one of our sites may also be required during your day-to-day role, but we’ll always provide plenty of notice and will again cover any necessary expenses.
Typical working hours for this role are 9am-5pm, Monday to Friday.
At Nationwide, we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK-wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.
For this job, you'll be located at our nearest regional hub. There will be a need to regularly connect with colleagues for collaboration events in one of our office sites. This is expected to be once quarterly at one of our office sites. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works.
If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.
This is an agile role within Customer Resolutions, meaning you’ll support different areas of Operations as needed. While your primary focus will be Complaints Handling, you may also work in areas such as Training & Competency or Customer Data Operations.
In Complaints Operations, listening is at the heart of what we do. You’ll handle complaints received through multiple channels, phone, web chat, or in a branch, and take ownership of resolving them. That means speaking to the customer, investigating the issue, understanding the customer’s experience, and making fair, informed decisions. Some conversations may be challenging, but you’ll receive excellent training and support to help you succeed.
You’ll manage your own worklist, prioritising effectively to meet regulatory timescales. With multiple cases on the go, strong organisational skills are essential.
We encourage you to share ideas and help shape the future of our service. When you spot something that could be improved, your voice matters.
As a minimum requirement, you’ll have:
Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:
Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers’ shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind
Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes
You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
There are all sorts of employee benefits available at Nationwide, including:
25 days holiday, pro rata
Access to private medical insurance
A highly competitive pension to help you build a strong foundation for retirement
Access to an annual performance-related bonus
Training and development to help you progress your career
A great selection of additional benefits through our salary sacrifice scheme
Life assurance to provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones in the event of your death

We forge our own path at Nationwide.
As a mutual, we’re owned by our members - those customers who bank, save or have a mortgage with us. We challenge the financial sector status quo.

If you’re inspired by fairer finances, passionate about making a meaningful impact, and truly care about our customers, you’re one of us.
At Nationwide, you are challenged to grow and rewarded for doing so. Valued. Recognised. Inspired to be your best. As a community, we want our working lives to count. As a team, we celebrate what we achieve. As a standard-setter, we work for the good of customers, communities, and broader society.
We are purpose-driven. Uncompromisingly customer. Unstoppably Nationwide.
