At Safetykleen, our customers are at the heart of everything we do - and we’re looking for a leader who shares that mindset. As Customer Relations Team Leader, you’ll lead our UK&I retention activity through our Regional Relations Managers. You’ll help your team continue to build trust, solve meaningful customer challenges, and demonstrate the long-term value of partnering with Safetykleen. This role is about people and relationships as much as performance. You’ll coach your team to take ownership of customer outcomes, step in early when accounts show signs of risk, and work with colleagues across service, branches and account management to resolve root causes properly - not just “manage” the cancellation conversation. Your mission: build a high-performing, supportive team that delivers outstanding customer outcomes, deepens loyalty, and extends customer lifetime through value, solutions, and service excellence.
Job Responsibility:
Driving disciplined, consistent delivery of the retention process and follow-up rhythm - managing daily allocation and prioritisation of risk/cancellation cases, ensuring clear ownership, early intervention and next steps to strengthen customer relationships and improve renewals
Creating momentum and shared accountability through a predictable daily/weekly operating routine - setting clear routines, tracking progress and actions, and ensuring consistent engagement and follow-up to prevent delays and backlog
Championing service recovery and root-cause resolution - partnering cross-functionally with branches, service and account management to intervene early, fix issues at source and improve the customer journey
Leading through your people - supporting, in-field coaching and developing Regional Retention Managers to build confident customer ownership, strong influencing skills and consistently high-quality engagement that rebuilds trust and loyalty
Enabling value-led, consistent delivery - training and developing the team and driving adoption of the right tools, systems and playbooks to create solutions, improve customer outcomes and capture insight
Using data and insight to improve outcomes - using case progression, themes and customer feedback to spot issues early, escalate high-value accounts, and guide effective interventions
Requirements:
Hold a valid driving licence - essential
You’re a customer-first leader who’s structured, commercial and calm under pressure
You’ve led retention/customer success or account management workflows
You coach high-quality conversations and strong ownership
You work confidently across teams to resolve issues quickly
You’re data-led with strong CRM discipline and turn insight into action
