We have no preconceptions about where the successful applicant will come from but you will bring experience of managing multi-channelled helpline operations and best practice as well as planning, measuring and delivering user and client service improvements.

You will need to be capable of working effectively within a complex international context and have sound experience of service development. This is a part-time role (21 hours per week) but we are keen to find the right person and therefore happy to discuss flexible working patterns. We are flexible about where the role is based but you will be managing helpline operations in the UK, India and the Philippines so you will need to be a great team player.
