The vacancy
The views of our customers and their experiences of the services we provide are important to Connexus. We want to know when things have gone well, but also when we don’t get things right, so that we can learn from our mistakes and make improvements to our services. We encourage complaints and have recently experienced an increase in the number of complaints we receive.
We are therefore looking for an additional Complaints Manager to work with our existing Complaints Team and take a flexible and proactive approach to supporting our complaint handling and the workload involved. This includes guiding colleagues who respond to complaints, personally responding at Stage 1 and Stage 2 where needed, and using data and evidence to drive improvements. The successful candidate will be responsible for keeping complaint data accurate and up to date, interpreting trends, and providing feedback and constructive challenge to teams to improve services.
As you will be working across all teams, our ideal candidate will have a good understanding of a social landlords responsibilities including ASB handling, responsive repairs and planned maintenance, and be able to look at issues from a customer perspective, rather than expecting a customer to fit in with our way of doing things.
You will need excellent communication and time management skills, along with a curious nature, attention to detail, level head and a flair for problem solving.
If you can answer yes to the following, we’d love to hear from you:
This role has been identified as suitable for hybrid working which will be a combination of home working and working from our offices, with Head office at Craven Arms and travel to other offices as required.
Shortlisting date: 17 August 2026
Interview date: 21 August 2026
