Customer Service Agent

Location: Manchester

Working pattern: Hybrid (3 days in-office) | 37.5 hours per week | Rotational shift pattern including 2–3 weekends per month (09:00 - 17:30)

Join us in our mission to transform the way people shop and eat, where impact, innovation, and growth drives everything we do. Our Customer Care team supports Deliveroo’s customers, riders, and restaurant partners—delivering thoughtful, efficient, and empathetic service at every interaction. Whether solving live issues, building proactive support experiences, or driving continuous improvement through data and insights, we are champions of service excellence across our entire marketplace. If you care deeply about people and love making things better—this is the place for you.

We’re looking for a Customer Service Agent to join our Marketplace Support & Service Excellence team. In this role, you’ll help us deliver fair, timely and high-quality resolutions across our three-sided marketplace — supporting customers, riders and partners when it matters most.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be joining the Partner Service team, working at the forefront of complex and high-impact cases involving our restaurant and grocery partners.

Here’s what your day-to-day might look like:

• Own complex partner resolutions: Manage high-impact queries and escalations from restaurant partners with an obsessive focus on service excellence.

• Navigate multi-channel support: Solve intricate issues primarily through non-live channels, utilizing phone calls and written correspondence based on partner preference.

• Drive global best practices: Collaborate with European and Middle Eastern colleagues to share insights and navigate escalations across our global marketplace.

• Deliver end-to-end case management: Independently seek out the best resolutions for complex requirements while keeping partners updated throughout the process.

• Champion the partner experience: Act as the face of the escalation team, ensuring every interaction is detail-oriented and resolution-focused.

What You’ll Need to Thrive

Our ideal candidate will bring strong expertise in some of these areas and curiosity to grow in others:

• Proven ability to work independently: Comfortable managing a high-volume workload and driving tasks to a favorable outcome autonomously.

• Strong solution-based mindset: An organized and driven approach to problem-solving in a fast-paced environment.

• Exceptional communication skills: Ability to handle sensitive escalations with empathy and professional clarity.

• Operational curiosity: A keen eye for detail and a desire to understand the mechanics of a complex, three-sided marketplace.

• Technical aptitude: Familiarity with CRM systems, telephony platforms, or knowledge bases is a plus.
