About us
Camden is building somewhere everyone can thrive, by making our borough the best place to live, work, study and visit. Because, we’re not just home to the UK’s fast-growing economy. We’re home to the most important conversations happening today. And we’re making radical social change a reality, so that nobody gets left behind. This is an exciting time to join our team at Contact Camden in their offices at the Crowndale Centre, two minutes from Mornington Crescent Station, providing a variety of key front line services as a Customer Service Officer.

Ideally, we’re looking for someone who has excellent customer service skills and previous experience of working in a customer service environment.
Most importantly, the right candidate must show positivity, take ownership of customer contact in order to ensure a resolution for the citizen, be self-motivated, enjoys working with people and take pride in delivering a high-quality customer service for the people of Camden.
You will demonstrate the ability to resolve front line customer service enquiries and take decisions to a high standard across multi channels. You will work flexibly with the ability to move across services and channels to respond proactively to changes in customer demand.
