Our Mission:

Napo is an Insurtech start-up committed to creating innovative, customer-centric and transparent products & services to help pet owners keep their pets healthy and happy.

• Can exercise sound commercial judgement to ensure fair customer outcomes.

• Have excellent knowledge and understanding of how to identify and support vulnerable customers.

• Have high attention to detail in documentation and record-keeping.

What you will do:

• Manage and resolve complaints in line with company and FCA guidelines to ensure a fair and prompt resolution.

• Use data to identify and share awareness of potential trends, issues or risks and escalate these appropriately.

• Work within company, legal and regulatory (FCA) policies and procedures to ensure compliance with requirements.

• Identify opportunities to create 6 star customer experience while maximising efficiencies.

• Maintain accurate and timely records to meet business needs and ensure data integrity and compliance with Data Protection requirements.
