Job description
Customer Service Insights Analyst
Reports to: Head: Commercial and Growth
Division: Enterprise Division — Commercial / Growth
Experience level: Mid-level
Employment type: Full-time
ROLE PURPOSE
The Customer Service Insights Analyst is responsible for the compilation, coordination, and presentation of structured Management Information Reports (MIR) for the Enterprise Division's top-tier clients. The role reports directly to the Head: Commercial and Growth and operates in close collaboration with the Growth Managers.
Client engagement within top-tier accounts is structured across two tiers of contact. The Head: Commercial and Growth and the Growth Managers own the Tier 1 commercial relationships — engaging with senior commercial, strategic, and decision-making contacts at the client. The Customer Service Insights Analyst owns the Tier 2 operational relationships, engaging directly with the client’s support and technology contacts to present operational and technical performance reporting, address data and system queries, and maintain a productive working relationship at the operational level.
The Customer Service Insights Analyst is responsible for the full MIR production cycle across all top-tier clients — coordinating data inputs from internal teams, assembling reports, preparing Client Growth Packs for use by Neil and the Growth Managers in their Tier 1 engagements, and independently conducting the Tier 2 client engagement. A critical secondary function is the structured capture and routing of client feedback — from both Tier 1 and Tier 2 contacts — back into the Commercial and Growth function for action and follow-through.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Management information and performance reporting
- Design, build, and maintain structured Management Information Report (MIR) packs for the division's top-tier clients, drawing on data from internal data warehouses, transactional systems, and commercial analytics platforms via the relevant internal teams.
- Coordinate data collection from across the business — including Technology, Finance, Operations, and the BI function — consolidating pre-analysed inputs into a single, accurate, client-ready performance report.
- Produce monthly client performance reports covering transaction volumes across bill payments, prepaid utility (PPU), airtime and data, and vouchers; margin quality analysis; total addressable market (TAM) capture; and client channel performance by product category.
- Ensure all reports are completed, reviewed, and ready for client engagement ahead of scheduled monthly meetings, with sufficient lead time for the Head: Commercial and Growth and Growth Managers to review the Client Growth Pack before their Tier 1 engagements.
- Maintain a standardised MIR template and format across all clients, with the ability to customise where specific client requirements or agreed KPI frameworks differ from the standard.
- Client growth pack preparation for Tier 1 engagements
- Compile a structured Client Growth Pack ahead of each monthly Tier 1 client engagement, integrating pre-analysed performance data, trend summaries, commercial insights, and prioritised expansion opportunities into a single presentation-ready document for use by the Head: Commercial and Growth and the relevant Growth Manager.
- Incorporate commercially relevant analysis received from the BI, Finance, or Commercial Intelligence functions, presenting that information in a format that is accessible and meaningful for a senior commercial audience.
- Include in the pack client channel performance patterns — by geographic cluster or transaction category — that highlight expansion opportunities or operational inefficiencies, based on data and analysis provided by internal teams.
- Ensure the Client Growth Pack is reviewed and signed off by the Head: Commercial and Growth prior to each Tier 1 client meeting.
- Tier 2 client engagement — operational and technical contacts
- Lead and conduct the monthly Tier 2 client engagement independently, presenting the Management Information Report directly to the client's operational support and technology contacts.
- Walk Tier 2 client contacts through transaction performance data, system and integration highlights, operational metrics, and any data or reporting queries relevant to their function.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for Tier 2 client contacts on matters relating to reporting, data queries, and operational performance between scheduled engagements.
- Identify and escalate any operational, technical, or integration issues raised by Tier 2 contacts to the relevant internal team — Technology, Operations, or BI — and track resolution through to completion.
- Maintain a productive and professional working relationship with Tier 2 contacts, ensuring they receive consistent, timely, and accurate reporting support.
- Client feedback capture and feedback loop management
- Capture all client feedback, operational constraints, data queries, and agreed action items arising from both Tier 1 and Tier 2 client engagements, producing a structured action register within 24 hours of each meeting.
- Route client feedback formally back into the Commercial and Growth function, ensuring that insights, constraints, and opportunities raised by clients at either tier are communicated to the Head: Commercial and Growth in a structured and timely manner.
- Maintain the action register for all active client engagements, tracking the resolution of each item and following up with internal teams and the client as required.
- Provide regular action register status updates to the Head: Commercial and Growth, flagging items that are overdue, blocked, or require escalation.
- Surface recurring client feedback themes to the Commercial and Growth leadership team so that systemic issues or product and operational opportunities can be addressed at a strategic level.
- Reporting administration and standards
- Maintain a master client reporting schedule, tracking MIR delivery timelines, Tier 1 and Tier 2 meeting dates, and action register status for all accounts within scope.
- Ensure consistent application of MIR and Client Growth Pack formatting, branding, and presentation standards across all client reporting outputs.
- Liaise with the BI Manager and relevant data teams to ensure data inputs are received on schedule and in the correct format for inclusion in client reports.
- Identify opportunities to improve the efficiency, accuracy, or presentation quality of the MIR process, proposing improvements to the Head: Commercial and Growth for consideration.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
- 3 to 5 years' experience in a client reporting, management information, business support, or client engagement role, preferably within financial services, fintech, payments, or VAS.
- Demonstrated experience producing structured management information or performance reports for external client audiences.
- Demonstrated experience engaging directly with external client contacts in a presentation or operational review setting.
- Strong proficiency in Microsoft
