Not just another building society. Not just another job.


We're the fourth biggest building society in the UK and what makes us a bit different is that we're a mutual organisation.

We don't have shareholders, we're owned by our members.


Our colleague say Skipton's a great place to work and you could be one of them, bringing with you new ideas on how we can keep customers at the heart of what we do.

Whatever your background, and whatever your goals, we'll help you take the next step towards a better future.


Job Description:

Are you an empathetic individual looking for a new challenge?


We have an opportunity for you to join our Bereavement and Registrations Team to assist with the administration of our customer accounts along with being the first point of contact for our bereaved customers, ensuring their queries are dealt with in a sensitive way with 'right first time' outcomes.

What You'll Be Doing


In this role you'll make sure the customer is at the heart of everything you do in order to optimise the customer experience.

You'll deal with both inbound and outbound calls in order to resolve queries and make sure you accurately update customers accounts and information.


You'll also:

  • Build excellent relationships with colleagues
  • Seek to continually improve process and procedures to benefit the team and our customers
  • Keep up to date with regulations and requirements
  • Action inbound mail communication, handling important documents with confidentiality
  • Actioning death registrations, Power of Attorney registrations and Wills
  • Provide support, training and guidance to colleagues to upskill on processes
What You'll Bring


As you'll be dealing with potentially vulnerable customers it goes without saying you'll need to be empathetic, patient and resilient to make sure the customer gets the right outcome.

You'll be able to manage multiple workloads including telephone queries and administration tasks, making sure your work is accurate alongside delivering a great service to our customers.


The key competencies for this role are:

  • Excellent customer service skills
  • Able to work to deadlines in a busy environment
  • High attention to detail
  • Able to display empathy when dealing with customers
  • Able to identify process improvements and recommend changes
We care about our colleagues. So we treat each other like the complex and diverse individuals we are.

Work here is never one-size-fits-all, it flexes around your strengths and needs,

Everyone is held accountable for achieving our common purpose.

The aim is for all of us to do better work, have a better life and enjoy a better balance between the two.
