Santander Mortgage Retentions
Apollos
Santanders front office telephone support services manage thousands of calls per month from existing mortgage customers who wish to switch to a new mortgage deal. Front office telephony agents used to have to use multiple systems to retrieve the information required to manage a large variety of call types. This necessitated a large number of call scripts and training to enable calls to be fulfilled successfully. The aims of the project was to deliver a web application that brought together all the data from these different databases and enable call staff to access relevant data to a call request quickly and easily. Over a 4 year project lifecycle I managed and designed the user experience for this custom application that increased retension rates, shortened call times, improved customer feedback and delighted internal staff.
