• Process customer refund requests promptly, ensuring the correct procedures are followed and that refunds are accurately issued. You will also need to communicate with customers to inform them of the status of their refund requests.
• Monitor and process unpaid direct debits, working with customers and internal departments to resolve any issues, reprocessing payments where appropriate or setting up alternative payment arrangements.
• Provide support to the customer service team by addressing any banking-related queries from customers.
• Manage the banking team's mailbox, ensuring all incoming queries and requests are handled efficiently, prioritising emails, responding to routine queries, and escalating more complex issues as necessary.
