Proactive Delivery – Lead the adoption of our proactive customer journey, ensuring service levels meet Cadent’s playbook standards.

Continuous Improvement – Identify opportunities for innovation and process change, promoting best practice across the network.

What you will bring:

  • Proven experience in leading or improving customer experience outcomes, with a track record of driving satisfaction.
  • Strong data management skills – able to interpret insights and communicate key messages effectively.
  • Experience in managing performance across a varied workforce, ideally in a regulated environment.
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
