Lead, coach and support a great team while staying connected to our customers.

We’re looking for an experienced and people-focused Contact Centre Team Leader to join The Mutual Bank.

This is a hands-on leadership opportunity where you’ll support the day-to-day operations of our Contact Centre, coach and develop Team Members, and help deliver a consistently great experience for our customers.

Importantly, this isn’t a role where you’ll step completely away from the phones. You’ll be expected to jump into the phone queues when required, supporting your team during busy periods and helping us maintain a great level of service to our customers.

The role offers a hybrid working arrangement, with the flexibility to work between our Head Office located in East Maitland and home.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll work closely with the Head of Retail Operations to:

- Lead, coach, motivate and support Team Members to grow their capability
- Coordinate the day-to-day operations of the Contact Centre
- Monitor workloads and support effective service delivery
- Help the team achieve its required outcomes and KPIs
- Support a positive, collaborative and can-do team environment
- Maintain strong knowledge across our products and services
- Take ownership of customer enquiries and complaints, resolving them in a prompt, professional and caring way
- Ensure the team operates within relevant policies and procedures
- Maintain effective relationships across the Contact Centre and other areas of the business
- Step into the phone queues and directly support customers when operationally required.





About you You’ll be someone who enjoys bringing out the best in others but is equally comfortable rolling up your sleeves and getting involved when your team needs you.

Ideally, you’ll bring:

- Strong communication, coaching and interpersonal skills
- At least 2 years’ experience in a call centre environment
- The ability to motivate and support a team in a busy service environment
- Strong problem-solving skills and a genuine focus on member experience
- Knowledge and understanding of the legislative and regulatory requirements applying to authorised deposit-taking institutions
- Experience with Genesys Cloud would be an advantage
- Previous Contact Centre Team Leader experience would also be highly regarded.

Why join The Mutual Bank? At The Mutual Bank, our values of Integrity, Respect and Care guide how we work with our customers, our communities and each other.

This role would suit someone who wants to build their leadership career while remaining close to the day-to-day customer experience. You’ll have the chance to develop your team, contribute ideas and improvements, and play an active part in creating a Contact Centre where both our customers and our people can thrive.

Ready to take the next step in your leadership career? We’d love to hear from you. Submit your application as soon as possible as we will be reviewing and interviewing candidates progressively.

Please note, background checks will be conducted as part of the recruitment process.
