The role
As a Senior Customer Resolutions Specialist, you’ll be a senior member of our Customer Resolutions team, responsible for managing complex, escalated and sensitive customer complaints. You’ll investigate issues thoroughly, work across the business to understand what’s happened, and deliver fair, timely outcomes that restore customer trust and meet our regulatory and service standards. This role balances hands‑on case management with acting as an escalation point and informal coach for other team members.
You’ll work closely with operational teams, field service partners and internal stakeholders to untangle technically complex or emotionally charged situations. You’ll also support the Customer Resolutions Manager by helping maintain momentum across the caseload, contributing to workflow coordination, and lifting the overall quality and consistency of customer communications.
What makes this role different is the opportunity to make a real impact – for customers and for the business. You’ll deal with matters that genuinely matter to people, often at stressful moments, and you’ll have the visibility and influence to identify systemic issues and help drive change. It’s a role that brings together empathy, judgement, analysis and influence, with growing use of modern tools and AI to improve how work gets done, and strong exposure to stakeholders across Vector.
Who are we looking for?
- Significant experience managing complex, escalated customer complaints or resolutions, ideally in a regulated, technical or high‑risk environment
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex or technical issues clearly, fairly and in a way that customers can understand
- High emotional intelligence and proven ability to de‑escalate emotionally charged situations while maintaining sound judgement and professionalism
- Strong business acumen and confidence navigating large organisations, holding others to account and constructively challenging when needed
- A collaborative, senior‑minded professional who enjoys sharing knowledge, lifting team capability and taking ownership of customer outcomes
- A proclivity for continuous improvement opportunities, including the role AI can play in supporting the delivery of exceptional customer experiences.
