About ScoreUp

ScoreUp is the FWH Group's credit wellness platform. Clients sign up, see their credit report, and get access to a range of products to improve their financial position. These include credit repair, clearance certificates, prescribed debt removal, debt review, legal services and insurance. We need an experienced Team Leader to run our Credit Coach team from lead to collection.

The role

You'll lead a team of Credit Coaches who advise clients on their credit reports and sell them the right mix of FWH Group products.

• Coach agents to spot each client's needs from their credit report and match them to the right product or products
• Make sure sales go through to collection with accurate, complete and compliant admin
• Monitor debit orders, failed payments and arrears, and set up follow-up and recovery processes
• Train agents on credit reports, negative listings, prescribed debt, clearance certificates and credit rehabilitation
• Coach through call listening, side-by-sides and regular one-on-ones
• Handle escalations, complaints and complex client queries
• Keep the team compliant with the NCA, POPIA, FAIS (for insurance sales) and internal quality standards
• Manage attendance, scheduling, adherence and floor discipline
• Run performance management (KPIs, performance improvement plans and disciplinary steps where needed)
