Overview

Are you a recent Graduate who is able to conduct work in Welsh (written and oral)? Do you have good customer service or complaint handling skills?

The Public Services Ombudsman is looking to recruit a Graduate to the role of Casework Officer to provide a service to members of the public and others who may contact the Ombudsman’s office with complaints or enquiries.

• Manage a caseload, undertake initial assessments of complaints and exercise the Ombudsman’s delegated authority.
• Use the in house case management system, process complaints and correspondence including straightforward rejections, such as complaints that are clearly outside our jurisdiction.

• Great telephone and customer service skills
• Complaint handling capabilities
• IT literate

This is a hybrid role, where some attendance on a weekly basis is required at our office in Bridgend.

It is vital that those working for the Ombudsman are impartial and that they are seen to be impartial. Staff working for the Ombudsman are therefore not permitted to take part in political activity and they are required to avoid public political comment, for example on social media. Successful candidates will be asked, prior to appointment, to sign an undertaking confirming that they agree to abide by our social media policy and review their social media footprint across all platforms used.
