1 month ago


Dublin, Dublin City, Ireland Cpl Full time

The CRU is now seeking a Senior Analyst to join the CRU's Customer Care Team. The Customer Care Team is part of the Consumer Policy and Protection Division. The team plays a central role in ensuring energy and water customers know their rights, both now and as the sectors evolve. The team directly helps customers, through investigating individual complaints as part of our independent dispute resolution service, providing an information service to customers, and identifying trends in customer issues and sharing insights with the organisation to help form future policy and enforcement action if required.

Key duties and responsibilities

Reporting to the Customer Care Manager, the successful candidate will be working to tight deadlines in a high-volume process-driven environment.

The main duties and responsibilities of the Senior Analyst (Customer Care), which may be adjusted in the light of changing priorities, include the following:

  • Leading and delivering on projects as delegated by the manager, predominantly relating to continuously improving the CRU's existing information and dispute resolution service, including policies, processes, and systems. Projects may also include developing and implementing consumer policy changes.
  • Managing input from external consultants and the CRU's outsourced contact centre.
  • As and when needed (for particularly complex cases or when volumes are high), conducting investigations into customers' unresolved complaints against either an energy company or Uisce Éireann, using understanding of the relevant policy areas to reach decisions on resolution to disputes.
  • Identifying issues and trends in relation to consumer issues in energy and water markets, based on data collected by the customer care team and dispute resolution service as well as surveys conducted by the CRU.
  • Preparing and presenting reports on identified consumer issues and trends to senior management.
  • Developing and maintaining an awareness/understanding of relevant policy developments and best practice in dispute resolution with the energy and water industry and related industries, both in Ireland and internationally.
  • Working with internal and external stakeholders, in a positive manner in order to further CRU objectives in relation to consumer protection.
  • Mentoring Graduate Analysts and Analysts within the CRU and conducting knowledge transfer sessions in order to share knowledge, expertise and learnings.
  • Carrying out such other functions as may be required from time to time to fulfil the business objectives of the CRU and as appropriate to the grade.
