Homeowner Support Operations Manager

Join us as Homeowner Support Manager

Want to do work that really matters?
At Checkatrade, we’re building the UK’s go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job, fast, fair, and without the faff.

As our next Homeowner Support Manager, you’ll lead the team that keeps our homeowner experience running smoothly. From guiding Associate Managers and agents to improving the processes behind claims, complaints and questions, you’ll help make sure every customer feels confident using Checkatrade.

This role can be based in either our Portsmouth or London office, whichever works best for you

Forget long lists, here’s what you’ll actually spend your time on:

• Leading a high-performing support team, developing Associate Managers and building a confident, capable leadership

• Owning the homeowner experience, making sure enquiries, claims and complaints are handled quickly, fairly and with care

• Spotting what’s not working and fixing it, using data and insights to drive smarter, scalable improvements

• Setting clear standards, building SOPs, QA processes and consistent ways of working

• Collaborating across the business, from Product to Legal, to make sure support is ready for what’s next
  

It’s not about ticking every box. It’s about turning up curious, ready to crack on. You’ll do well here if you bring:

• Experience leading customer support teams, ideally in a contact centre or fast-paced ops environment

• A calm head with complaints and claims, especially when the stakes (or emotions) are high

• A knack for spotting issues early and turning insight into action that makes things better

• Confidence using data to drive decisions, track performance, and make the case for change

• A team-first mindset, with strong communication skills and a focus on helping people grow
  

We believe great work deserves great rewards. Here’s just a taste:

• Competitive salary + annual bonus or commission (role dependent)

• Health, well-being and learning support

• Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme and Cycle Scheme

• Birthday/Special day leave

• Buy & sell holiday scheme

• 1 week’s paid charity leave and much more!

How we’ll get to know each other:

• Screening call with one of our Talent Acquisition Partners

• 1st stage interview with our Operations Transformation Manager

• Final interview includes a case study with a panel of Senior Stakeholders

If you require any reasonable adjustments during our interview process, please discuss them with your Talent Acquisition Partner.

If this sounds like the place where you can do your best work, we’d love to hear from you, even if you don’t tick every box.
