We need customers to join our partnership; to give us your views on the services you receive from us and what your thoughts and ideas are on how they can be improved.
You don’t need any special experience or qualifications to join; you just need to be a current tenant of Plexus who is willing to give up a couple of hours of your time each month.
If you think that could be you, read on for more information about what’s involved and how to let us know you’re interested.
About the Customer Voice Partnership
The Customer Voice Partnership will be made up of around 10 tenants who will look at what we do and how we do it and make recommendations about how we can improve services.
These will go directly to the Plexus Board who must respond to you with information on how they will implement any changes you recommend or provide reasons why any recommendations could not be taken forward.
The partnership will meet (virtually now) every quarter and there will be opportunities to take part in customer journey scrutiny topics to see exactly first-hand how we do things.
What will it involve?
Being part of the partnership does require some time commitment. You will be expected to read any material sent in advance of meetings, attend the meetings (virtually for the time being), share your views and put forward recommendations. You might also be involved in putting together reports, although we will support members with this, so no need to feel daunted.
We are looking for people with a passion for high customer standards and the drive to work with us to make improvements to the way we work. In return, we offer training and support to ensure you feel confident in your role, reasonable expenses, and the experience of being part of a panel that will make a real difference to all of our customers.
You should:
- Have current experience of living in a home provided by or managed by Plexus
- Be interested in improving customer experience and influencing business delivery
- Have a curious mind and be willing to ask relevant and constructive questions
- Be able to consider the evidence and explore issues that are part of your experience and outside of your experience
- Be willing to listen to the views of others and to work together with other tenants on the partnership to make recommendations for service improvements.
Previous tenant involvement experience is not required but do let us know if you have any.
