Cirencester Friendly attains ServiceMark accreditation

Published on

Cirencester Friendly has been awarded The Institute of Customer Service (ICS) ‘ServiceMark’ accreditation.

ServiceMark is an independent National Standard which is awarded based on customer feedback through business benchmarking and an internal survey of staff’s understanding of the Society’s customer service strategy.

This accreditation reflects the Society’s commitment to high standards of customer service and recognises the efforts of the Society to achieve this.

The Society says it is always looking for ways to develop and improve its service to make interacting with them an effortless and enjoyable experience and so welcomed the chance to work with The ICS to achieve the accreditation.

Michelle West-Wiggins, head of customer care and business processing, said: “We are delighted with the achievement and recognition that The ICS ServiceMark accreditation brings. Our continued focus is to provide excellent customer service and to be there when members and financial advisers need us most.

“I feel this achievement recognises the hard work our staff commit to achieving a high standard of service.”

Jo Causon, CEO of The Institute, added: “Cirencester Friendly is part of a growing band of organisations who understand that a well thought out customer service strategy can positively affect the bottom line. Achieving ServiceMark is a sign that the Society is determined to demonstrate a commitment to continuously improve customer service standards and constantly evolve plans for service improvement.

“By acting on the insights gained from customer feedback as part of the ServiceMark accreditation, the Society will be in a stronger position to offer their Members and Advisers what they want, when they want and how they want it.”
