About the Role

We’re looking for a Customer Service Advisor to join our frontline Patient Care Team, supporting patients at key moments in their healthcare journey. This is a fast-paced, high-volume role where empathy, accuracy, and ownership matter just as much as speed.

You’ll be the first point of contact for patients across multiple channels, helping them understand their options, resolve issues, and feel confident they’re being cared for. Every interaction counts, and you’ll play a direct role in shaping the patient experience. If you enjoy problem-solving, take pride in doing things properly, and want to work in a team that genuinely cares about patients and each other, this role could be a great fit.

• Deliver clear, accurate, and compassionate support to patients across all contact channels. Take full ownership of patient queries from first contact through to resolution.
• Manage both routine and more complex issues, escalating appropriately when required.
• Work closely with pharmacy, clinical, and logistics teams to resolve patient concerns.
• Accurately record all interactions and actions within internal systems. Follow company processes, regulatory requirements, and GDPR at all times.
• Contribute ideas to improve service quality, efficiency, and the patient journey. Take part in training, coaching, and quality improvement activity.

• Previous experience in a contact centre or call centre environment.
• Confident communicator with strong written and verbal skills.

Desirable:

• Experience using CRM systems (Zendesk experience is advantageous).
• Experience working in a regulated, healthcare, or customer-critical environment.

This Role Will Suit Someone Who

• Naturally puts patients and customers first.
• Takes responsibility and sees issues through to completion.
• Stays calm and solutions-focused under pressure.
• Is open to feedback and keen to develop their skills.
• Enjoys being part of a collaborative, supportive team.

Why Join Us

You’ll be joining a purpose-led organisation focused on improving access to healthcare and delivering high-quality patient experiences. Make a meaningful difference to patients every day. Learn and grow through structured training and development. Move to a flexible hybrid working model after training. Be part of a supportive, inclusive team culture.
