Auckland City, New Zealand Mercury Full time

Tiakina te anamata, mā te tūhono i ngā tāngata me ngā wāhi o te inamata. Taking care of tomorrow: connecting people and place today.

Mercury is a bold future-focused organisation, providing energy and telecommunications to more Kiwi than anyone else, leading the way with renewable energy and working toward a sustainable future. At the heart is our purpose which pushes us to do all we can to create a better future for our people, our communities, and Aotearoa New Zealand.

**Our Opportunity**:
As a leader within renewable generation, we are very conscious of our responsibilities to our customers, particularly our vulnerable customers. Our approach to customer care continues to shape much of our existing and future retail activity. Electricity is one of many costs consumers are juggling, and holistic solutions are key to effecting meaningful change.

Our Payment Solutions team are challenging the way debt collection is perceived and removing the stigma attached to it. We require someone for a fixed term contract who is willing and able to adapt to our Payment Solutions mindset and hit the ground running, supporting on inbound and outbound calls. We work closely with our Community Engagement Manager to bring change to the industry and to help those having trouble paying their power bills - a heavy handed approach is not in the best interests of our customers.

Our team pride themselves on helping people get back on track and feel a sense of reward for negotiating a successful arrangement. Our staff feel empowered to make their own decisions with the flexibility to make their own sustainable arrangements for customers. They have a genuine desire to help people and enjoy the huge amount of variety that the role offers.
- Action outbound and inbound calls with residential customers in arrears in a helpful and professional manner, with a goal of first call resolution.
- Negotiate payment solutions for customers e.g. instalment plans within Mercury's guideline and business rules.
- Respond to all calls and correspondence appropriately on a daily basis and ensure your other KPIs are met.
- Actively contribute to overall team performance in achieving debt reduction and constantly lifting our capability to help customers.

**We are looking for**:

- Customer service / engagement experience
- Previous experience working with a large customer base
- Familiarity with Electricity Code of Practice and/or Consumer Care Guideline and Mercury's Terms and Conditions
- An understanding of GTV/SAP, Excel, Outlook and Word is desirable

**Mercury offers (full benefits are listed on our Career Page)**:

- A diverse workplace where your unique abilities and talents will be recognised and encouraged
- The opportunities, career paths and facilities associated with working for one of New Zealand's largest multi-utility providers
- Flexible working policy - The autonomy and trust to work flexibly from our purpose-built premises and from home, recognising the value of this flexibility in the modern world
- Fresh fruit delivered twice a week

Mercury is a learning organisation that is committed to providing you with opportunities to grow and develop that will benefit you now and in the future. Part of your role includes building your skillset and mindset through a variety of ways. We believe this creates an energised, innovative and agile work environment where you will feel valued.
