We have an exciting new opportunity to join a 'Platinum Investors in People' employer, supporting our branches in Northumberland and beyond.

Every day is different in the life of a Customer Adviser, from opening and setting up the tills ready for the working day ahead, making customer appointments, processing customer transactions at the counter, assisting in the opening of savings accounts to cashing up and closing at the end of the day! The list is endless however at the heart of everything we do is our customer.
This is a full time permanent role working Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm (plus Saturdays on a rota basis, usually one or two per month, paid as overtime).
