      Working directly with Openreach this role was primarily to get customers in new build properties as quickly as possible. This included liaising with subcontractors in order to get the most urgent customers connected, problem solving, and then reporting daily progress of all priority jobs on a daily conference call of the top 100 jobs. The aim of the conference call was to update the client and also discuss any issues we where having in order to get the work completed, A55's, wayleaves, permits, planning issues etc.

    • Directors Service Level Officer
      • Apr 2013 - Jan 2015

      Customer service officer, the basis of this job was to liaise directly with the client BT and Openreach to ensure that customer’s phone lines and broadband was connected within a strict deadline, during my work here I was responsible for high pressure situations in which customers who had been waiting months had complained to the CEO of Openreach and contacted their MP, newspaper or sometimes TV and my job was to chase up our contractors (who carried out the work on Carillion’s behalf). Many aspects of the job require getting results for some high profile cases, BT come to me with many problems that are ‘brand damaging’ to their business or are press complaints, I often have enquiries were the customer has escalated to the CEO of Openreach, has gone to the press or television to complain about their lack of service, my job is to then work together with our sub-contractors to help get a result that they are satisfied with as well as explaining in detail the reasons behind the delays in service.

      Based on Centurion Way, Leyland, this role was working on behalf of Enterprise for the Ministry of Defence, the main aim of the job was to ensure repairs for British army service families houses where maintained and attended, ensuring every engineer has a day planned that ensures he meets all his appointments. My main duties were to make sure my 10 engineers had enough work to complete all their jobs between 8-5.00pm as well as ensuring that their appointments for each job were on time to keep customers’ expectations maintained, this was done by doing a forward plan the night before and running through it with the engineer to iron out any potential problems, I needed to have good attention to detail as any jobs which needed a second visit needed to go back to the same engineer and it had to fit in with both the customer and the engineer’s plan of work for that day. Smaller duties included following up enquiries to find out information on any past jobs or see what jobs would require a second visit before it went out first time and knowing all the routes an engineer took in a day and knowing how far each place on his map was apart and were was the best place to start and finish.

One different aspect of the job was to look out for any fraudulent claims any that we found we reported to the relevant insurer.
