• You'll need to be conscientious and genuine, caring about helping people move forward with their finances.
• Your ability to quickly build rapport will help you to understand and then meet your Customer's needs to give them a truly excellent Customer experience.
• You'll act with care and integrity - making time to resolve queries, giving customers confidence through the services you provide.

Do these well and you'll be helping customers take their next step in life using some of our latest in-branch technologies and wider digital services.

Whether you’re greeting customers at the welcome desk, helping them at the counter or working in other branch areas, you’ll make the most of your best talent – just wanting to help people.

What else do we need?

• We'll need you to be hardworking ideally with previous experience of delivering excellent service - no banking or finance experience is necessary.
• Great attention to detail (forms, figures, systems, cash etc.)
• You’ll be a genuine teammate - collaborating with your branch colleagues to ensure our customers' needs are met.
• The flexibility to work across a number of branches in the local area and some Saturdays when needed.

In return, we'll be totally committed to investing in you. From your first day we’ll provide all the training and support you need... Many of our colleagues gain the opportunity to gain an industry qualification - working towards an Intermediate Apprenticeship in Providing Financial Services or other career-advancing qualifications and opportunities to develop your career further within the organisation.

We'll give you a reward package which offers you flexibility and choice. It enables you to choose the benefits that suit you: from additional cash payments, retail discount vouchers or buying/selling annual leave. This is on top of investing in your future through generous pensions, share schemes etc.

Once a year you'll also have the option to give a day to support initiatives within your local community and make even more of a difference.
