Is our Customer Service Apprenticeship for you?
We’ve got a few types of roles supporting our Customer Services Practitioner Apprenticeship programme, and we can discuss options and preferences at interview.

You'll also protect the bank and our customers from criminal activity using technology and expertise to screen payments, customers and transactions. You may also be involved in reconciling internal accounts or providing support if the Group’s payments services are interrupted.
Alternatively, you could join a back-office team, working closely with other supporting departments, handling different Commercial customer activities. This could be from initial query to completion, supporting our customer-facing colleagues in providing outstanding customer service.
