Customer Interaction: Service advisors are the first point of contact for customers, greeting them, listening to their vehicle concerns, and providing a friendly, professional experience. They explain service options, answer questions, and ensure customers understand the repair process and associated costs
Technical Coordination: They translate complex automotive issues into understandable terms for customers and relay accurate information to technicians. This includes preparing detailed job cards, assigning tasks to the appropriate technicians, and monitoring repair progress

Estimates and Cost Management: They provide accurate cost estimates for repairs and maintenance, including parts and labor, and communicate these clearly to customers. This transparency helps set realistic expectations and builds trust
Quality Assurance and Problem Resolution: Service advisors ensure that all work meets the service center’s standards. They address customer complaints, resolve issues promptly, and maintain high levels of customer satisfaction
Upselling and Revenue Enhancement: While not direct sales roles, service advisors may recommend additional services, maintenance packages, or value-added products to enhance vehicle performance and increase workshop revenue
Knowledge Maintenance: They stay updated on automotive systems, repair procedures, and new technologies to provide informed guidance and maintain credibility with both customers and technicians
Skills and Attributes: Successful service advisors combine technical knowledge, strong communication, emotional intelligence, and time management skills. They must handle multiple tasks simultaneously, manage customer expectations, and foster long-term relationships to encourage repeat business
Work Environment: Service advisors typically work in automotive dealerships, repair shops, or service centers. Their role involves both office-based tasks and frequent interaction with the repair shop floor, requiring adaptability and collaboration with technicians and other staff

About the companyOur client is a specialist investment analytics firm with a proprietary dataset built over more than two decades. Its clients include pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and leading asset managers globally. The firm is now evolving from consultancy delivery to a technology platform, with new tools launching in the coming months that put its analytics directly into users' hands. It is a growing, founder led team, so you will have real visibility, real flexibility and a direct line to the people running the business.The roleAdoption is the whole job to begin with. At each client firm a small group of sponsors are already deeply bought into the platform. Behind them sit hundreds of colleagues who could have access but are not yet using it. Across a global institutional client base, that is a very large untapped audience, and winning it over is what will make the platform transition succeed.The initial period is about getting to know the product and the business. You will spend your time understanding who the key decision makers are across the current client list, working closely with the team, then getting deep into each client to help them maximise their usage and get real value from the platform.That is the starting point, not the ceiling. As adoption is proven across the client base, the role has real scope to evolve into onboarding new business, taking what works with clients out to prospects. This evolution is a key part of how the role is expected to grow.You will be trained and mentored by the senior team, learn the investment analytics domain from people who built it, and take on your own client accounts as you develop. It is a rare chance to learn a specialist industry from the inside while doing a role with a very visible impact.What you'll do day to dayGet to know the product inside out and learn the business deeply, so you can connect what the analytics show to the decisions users actually makeMap and build relationships with the key decision makers across the current client list, working closely with the teamRun demos, workshops, presentations and online sessions showing users what the platform can do and how to get the most from itMonitor usage and engagement data and act on it: onboard new users, re-engage dormant ones, celebrate the active onesWork with client IT teams to make sure the technology is properly implemented and rolled out at each firmCreate the material that drives usage: success stories and insight pieces that give users a reason to come backSupport the adoption roadmap across the client base, owning your own accounts as your confidence growsHow success is measuredThe percentage of addressable users actively using the platformAdoption at the individual level and, more importantly, at the client levelDepth of engagement, firm by firmAbout youStrong experience (up to around 2 years) in a SaaS, technology or client facing role touching onboarding, customer success or sales development.Comfortable picking up technical concepts quickly and explaining them simplyA natural communicator who enjoys presenting and winning people over, with the confidence to grow into senior audiencesOrganised and persistent: adoption is won through consistent follow up, not one big pitchCurious about investment and financial markets (no prior experience needed, you will be taught by some of the best in the field)Based in or around Croydon, or happy with the commuteLocation and working patternOffice in central Croydon, right by Boxpark and its amenities, 15 minutes from London Bridge and 20 minutes from VictoriaIn office role with core days midweek and hybrid flexibilityOption to move to a 4 day week (salary pro rata) if that suits youStart as soon as possibleWhy this roleFew junior roles put you this close to the centre of a business. You would join at the start of the platform transition, learn directly from the founder and senior team, and own a scoreboard everyone cares about, with a route into new business as the role evolves.
