Customer Service & Retention Advisor

RAC

About The Role

Join the RAC as a Renewals & Retentions Advisor and help members make confident, informed choices about the cover that keeps them moving.

Based in Bradley Stoke, Bristol, you'll earn £27,805.99 with the opportunity to earn a bonus of up to 30% of your salary through our monthly bonus scheme.

This is a full-time permanent role. Shifts fall between 8am and 6pm on weekdays and 9am to 5pm on Saturdays. You'll work an average of two Saturdays every six weeks, with no Sunday working.

More than answering calls

This isn't cold calling or selling from a script. You'll take inbound calls from existing RAC members who are thinking about renewing, changing or cancelling their breakdown cover.

Your job is to understand why.

You'll listen for what matters, ask thoughtful questions and adapt as the conversation develops. You'll explain products, prices and options clearly, work through concerns and help members make an informed choice without pressure.

Some conversations will be straight forward. Others will test your judgement, resilience and adaptability to think on your feet. You'll balance what matters to the member with the commercial needs of the RAC, while making sure members understand their options and male an informed choice.

What you'll do

Handle inbound calls from members looking to renew, review or cancel their cover
Understand what's driving each conversation by listening, asking the right questions and avoiding assumptions
Explain RAC products, prices, benefits and options clearly, adapting your approach as you learn more
Work through concerns and objections confidently and professionally
Use good judgement to balance member needs with commercial outcomes
Recognise when a member may be vulnerable and adapt your approach
Take ownership of each conversation, complete actions accurately and make sure members know what happens next
Navigate multiple systems while keeping the conversation natural and focused

What you'll need

You don't need previous contact centre experience. We're more interested in the skills and potential you bring.

You'll be someone who:

Listens and stays curious - You pick up on what members are telling you, ask useful questions and don't jump to conclusions
Adapts and influences - You explain value clearly, respond to concerns and change your approach when the conversation changes
Uses good judgement - You weigh up different options and make balanced decisions for the member and the RAC
Bounces back - You stay professional during challenging conversations, reset and bring fresh energy to your next call
Takes ownership - You follow things through, learn from feedback and look for ways to improve

Experience in customer service, sales, renewals or retention could help, but it's not essential.

Your performance, recognised

This is a target-driven role, but success isn't about one number.

You'll have clear goals for the quality of your conversations, the members you retain and how effectively you work. You'll get regular coaching to help you build on what's going well and develop where you need to.

And when you perform well, you can earn more. Our monthly bonus scheme gives you the opportunity to earn a bonus of up to 30% of your salary.

What you'll get

Alongside your salary and bonus opportunity, you'll receive:

Free RAC Ultimate Breakdown Cover from day one
Car salary sacrifice scheme, including EV options, after 12 months
23 days' holiday plus bank holidays, rising with service
Pension with up to 6.5% matched contributions and life cover
24/7 wellbeing support for you and your family
Access to discounts across retail, travel and more
Colleague share scheme so you can share in the RAC's success

You'll also get structured training and ongoing coaching to build your knowledge, confidence and career.
