How long have you worked at Admiral?

I joined Admiral on August 21, 2011.

Describe what you do.

I am a Senior Customer Assurance Executive. I help run a team of Complaint Executives in the Customer Assurance Department. My day is made up of answering referrals, coaching, feedback and motivation along with the administration duties that come with working in a small department. As we are a complaints department I help take complaints when our queue is high, as well as take them when they escalate. I also monitor complaints as they are completed to make sure we are giving a fair outcome to our customers, as Customers are the heart of everything we do!
