About the team

About the role
As a Client Service Officer in the Customer Foundation team, you will be one of the first points of contact for new customers under a financial management order. You will work with people who may be experiencing challenging or vulnerable circumstances, taking the time to understand their individual situation, financial needs and existing supports.
You will onboard new customers by gathering relevant information about their finances and personal circumstances. You will manage a customer caseload, develop action plans, process financial transactions and work with families, carers, service providers and internal teams to establish appropriate arrangements for each customer.
This is a varied role where you will balance competing priorities, maintain accurate records, use sound judgement and identify when complex or sensitive matters need to be escalated. Your work will help establish a strong foundation for the ongoing management of customers’ financial affairs.
