Job summary

It's an exciting time to join us, as HM Land Registry (HMLR) is committed to becoming the world’s leading land registry for speed, simplicity, and an open approach to data, and aiming to achieve comprehensive registration by 2030.

HM Land Registry (HMLR) are looking for a minimum of 10 great candidates to join them as Customer Support Officers in our Swansea office.

Our Swansea office is set in an attractively landscaped business park close to Swansea City’s Liberty Stadium and a short journey away from the dynamic city centre and the Swansea Bay seafront. Near Swansea are the beaches and shops of the Mumbles and the walking country of the Gower peninsula, the UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Job description

About the role:

In this vital customer-facing role, you will work in a fast-paced environment where your primary role will be to manage customer telephone calls efficiently, providing accurate, impartial information in line with the advisory policy. You will deal with a range of land registration enquiries and provide information to customers quickly and clearly, taking calls from all sectors of our community. You will also maximise the number of calls you can respond to, using the most efficient and effective call handling techniques. You will actively encourage customers to self-serve, reduce rework, promote, and drive the use of new products and services and strive to achieve all customer related KPIs and targets.

As this is an entry-level opportunity, you will receive fantastic training to make you an expert in your field. There will be opportunities to undertake various offline tasks as part of the role. If you want to progress, there are plenty of opportunities to take on extra work and responsibility and room to grow and move up through the organisation.

‘Where an individual taking up the responsibility will be based in Swansea Office, the ability to speak Welsh is desirable’.

Our Customer Support Centre is open from 8.00am until 17.00pm, Monday to Friday, however sometimes calls need answering until 18:00pm. Customer Support Centre (CSC) staff are on flexible working patterns and all team members are expected to play their part in ensuring that there is sufficient cover available to take the forecasted volume of calls throughout the opening hours. CSC staff are required to schedule working hours in advance to ensure sufficient cover is in place.

Please note that the working hours are Full time, 37 hours a week or part-time minimum of 30 hours a week over 4 or 5 days. If requesting a 4-day working pattern the available days to request as a non-working day are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. You will be required to work full time during the initial training period of 14 weeks in the Swansea office.

Person specification

About you:

You can demonstrate effective verbal and written communication skills, with a reasonable level of fluency in English and always put the customer first. You will also be a strong team player and have an approachable persona. You will be a self-starter with great organisational and time management skills and a working knowledge of Microsoft software. With a great eye for detail, you will be able to spot mistakes where others don’t. You can make sound judgements, providing clear advice in challenging or sensitive situations.

Qualifications and experience are not essential for this role; however, a Customer Service qualification or relevant experience is desirable.

This is a job with responsibility, so you will need to rise to the challenge, taking ownership of the work you do and the results you achieve.

The Customer Support Officer position is classed as a "public-facing" role. In November 2016 the government published a code of practice on the English language requirements for public sector workers https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/573013/english_language_requirement_public_sector_workers_code_of_practice_2016.pdf


If you’re looking for a challenging role you can really make your own and want to join HMLR on their exciting journey, start your application today.
