About us
At Urban Jungle, we’re making insurance fair - to people, planet and wallets. We're one of the fastest-growing businesses in the UK, working to fix one of the biggest industries in the world.
We put customers at the heart of everything we do, using data and technology to make insurance simple, flexible, and affordable.
We care about our impact on the planet, becoming a B Corp in 2022 and offsetting our carbon emissions every year.
So far, we’ve helped 300,000 customers get better insurance and become one of the top-rated home insurance providers in the UK.
We placed 1st in Tempo's 2024 award for best startup to work for, and are in the top 10 of Deloitte’s Fast 50. We’ve raised over £43m in funding to date to help us with our mission.
We’re looking for people to join our team of kind, talented people on a mission to change the insurance industry for good.
About the role
We’re looking for a customer-focused Complaints Manager to play a key role in shaping how we handle complaints and make a genuine impact to our customers.
As our Complaints Manager, you’ll take ownership of the end-to-end complaints process, ensuring that customer concerns are handled with care, accuracy, and a customer-first mindset. Beyond managing complaints, you’ll lead and guide a small team, helping them navigate complex cases and continuously improve our approach.
In this role, you’ll work closely alongside our Operations Managers and report directly to our Operations Director, Devisha, to refine and enhance our complaints strategy.
We’re a fast-growing business, so there will be plenty of opportunities to innovate, improve processes, and influence the way we operate as a function. If you’re passionate about delivering great customer outcomes, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and turning challenges into opportunities, we’d love to hear from you!
Here’s what you’ll get up to:
- Act as the go-to expert for escalated customer complaints, ensuring high-stakes issues are handled with precision, empathy, and efficiency.
- Keep our complaint resolution process razor-sharp and fully aligned with FCA regulations, safeguarding compliance while championing customer fairness.
- You will be the key liaison with the Financial Ombudsman to ensure every customer receives a just and transparent outcome.
- Deliver impactful training to upskill the team in communication, compliance, and customer empathy—turning every challenge into an opportunity for excellence.
- Maintain meticulous records of all complaints and resolutions, leveraging insights to refine processes and enhance the overall customer experience. Provide regular, data-driven reports on complaint trends, root causes, and resolution effectiveness—delivering actionable insights to leadership to fuel continuous improvement.
You've read this far! Here's what we need from you:
- Experience in a people leadership role, with a strong background in complaints handling and resolution, preferably in a regulated industry.
- You’ll be a champion of our values, and encourage others to be the same.
- You’ve managed complaints, escalations, or complex issues. You’re passionate about delivering fair outcomes and continuously improving the customer experience.
- You’re data-driven - you can track, analyse, and report complaint trends, using insights to drive process improvements and enhance customer satisfaction.
- You love to make things better, and you’re a natural idea generator. You can turn those ideas into scoped pieces of work, and you’ve played a part in many successful projects or initiatives.
- Excellent communication and collaboration; you can work with colleagues across an organisation to solve problems, and get things done.
- You enjoy managing a varied workload and you know how to prioritise effectively to get the right things done for your team and the business.
- You’re ambitious and eager to progress quickly to grow alongside the company.
- You apply yourself to everything you do, recognising the difference that makes to the business.
- You treat everyone with integrity, respect and kindness - whether it’s your colleagues, our customers, or our partners.
These requirements are a guide as to what we’re looking for, but if you don’t have all of the skills listed above, that’s okay! Please don’t let that hold you back from applying if the role excites you.
