Counter Manager (Secondment) - Halifax Bank
(2011-01 - 2012-12)
I managed a team of 8 Customer Service Consultants with a range of experience from new starters to very experienced colleagues. I delivered regular feedback and conducted coaching with the team which provided them with skills to facilitate high standards of customer service, risk and targets. As a result of team work, team building and positive feedback, the team moved from and underperforming team on Net Promoter Score feedback to being the highest within the first 3 months of leading the team. These standards were maintained throughout my period as Counter Manger.
Manager and I had a strong working relationship where together we developed strategies to strengthen the teams' controls and better monitor our performance to reduce cash errors. I investigated customer complaints, developing my diplomacy skills in resolving the customer issues and providing the customer and the bank the right resolution.
