At Progress Housing Group, we're more than just homes, we're a community. With 900+ passionate colleagues, we're committed to making a difference every day, supporting people to live independently and thrive.

We're looking for a proactive and adaptable Customer Service Advisor to join our Customer Contact team on a 12-month fixed-term basis to provide cover for internal secondments. This is a fantastic opportunity to be the first point of contact for our tenants and customers, making a real impact through excellent service across multiple channels.

About the role

As a Customer Service Advisor, you'll be the first point of contact for our tenants and customers - answering queries by phone, web chat, and in person at our Sumner House reception. This is a full-time role working 36.25 hours per week, where you'll provide friendly, professional support across a range of enquiries, ensuring every interaction is positive and efficient.

You'll start with a supportive, on-site training period (typically six months), then move to a hybrid pattern with at least half your time in the office. Shifts are Monday to Friday only and are assigned on a rota basis, covering 8:00 - 16:00, 8:30 - 16:30, 9:00 - 17:00, or 10:00 - 18:00. Rotas are published 4 - 8 weeks in advance and you can swap shifts with colleagues where possible.

We set realistic expectations: our call KPI is just 4 calls per hour, focusing on quality and customer care rather than high pressure targets. You'll also have access to a comprehensive training platform, with opportunities to develop your skills and explore other areas of the business.

What We Are Looking For

To be successful in this role, you should have:

• IT literate, with confidence using digital systems
• Strong problem solving skills, initiative, and adaptability
• Excellent telephone manner
• Values that align with Progress Housing Group
• Experience in housing or a similar sector
• Experience dealing with people via writing, phone, and face to face

Why Progress?

At Progress Housing Group, we believe in supporting our people so they can do their best work and enjoy a fulfilling career. Here's what you can expect when you join us:

• Competitive salary: £30,242 - £31,308, above the typical regional range
• No weekends: All shifts are Monday to Friday
• Predictable rotas: Published 4 - 8 weeks in advance, with shift swaps possible
• Low pressure KPIs: 4 calls per hour, focused on quality
• Hybrid working: After training, at least 50% of your time in the office
• Development Opportunities: Access to training and the chance to build experience across the business
• Supportive culture: Coaching, recognition, and a friendly, expert team
• Purpose and impact: Make a real difference to our tenants and communities
