Full Job Description

## Description Our Story   Hello there. We’re Zopa.   We started our journey back in 2005, building the first ever peer-to-peer lending company. Fast forward to 2020 and we launched Zopa Bank. A bank that listens to what our customers don’t like about finance and does the opposite. We’re redefining what it feels like to work in finance. Our vision for a new era of banking puts people front and centre — we’ve built a business that empowers everyone to aim high, every day, to move finance forward. Find out more about our fantastic offerings at Zopa.com!  We’re incredibly proud of our achievements and none of it would be possible without the amazing team here. It’s not just industry awards we’re winning, we’ve also been named in the top three UK’s Most Loved Workplaces.  If you embrace unconventional challenges, are unafraid to think differently and are driven to make an outsized impact, you’ll thrive here at Zopa, so join us, and make it count. Want to see us in action? Follow us on Instagram @zopalife Zopa has a wide-ranging complaints function spanning current accounts, consumer lending, auto finance, FOS escalations and a growing AI-assisted case-handling programme. It’s a genuinely complex environment that needs someone who can lead a team, exercise sound judgement on difficult cases, and help the business learn from what complaints are telling it. Reporting to the Head of Complaints, you’ll lead a complaints management team, own the process, and make informed, balanced and complex decisions where needed. You’ll be setting the standard for how we handle our most complex and high-risk cases especially those that go to the Financial Ombudsman Service and making sure what we learn from complaints actually improves how Zopa is built and run. This is a senior role with real influence. You’ll work with Product, Risk, Credit, Legal and Operations, and represent Complaints in senior forums where decisions get made. You’ll own complaints across our banking and lending prod
