Overview of the Role
As a Customer Service Host at Heathrow Airport, you are the welcoming face and central facilitator for passengers requiring special assistance. Operating from the host desk either landside or airside, your core mission is to deliver excellent customer service from the moment a passenger arrives. You play a crucial role in ensuring every customer receives a positive, safe and enhancing experience by carefully assessing their requirements and setting the stage for a seamless journey.
Working collaboratively with the management team, your primary focus is on actively managing and facilitating the daily operational flow. Rather than directly managing people, you will monitor the environment to ensure that the highest standards of service are maintained and that operational, quality and safety guidelines are consistently followed by the Customer Service Agents. Ultimately, you act as a key brand ambassador, embodying ABM’s core values to ensure every passenger feels valued and supported.
Main Duties & Responsibilities
- Deliver First-Class Customer Experiences: Act as the primary ambassador at the host desk (landside or airside), greeting every passenger warmly, assessing their needs and ensuring they receive excellent service from the moment they arrive.
- Manage & Facilitate the Passenger Experience: Proactively ensure all passengers are booked into the tracking system and expedite smooth transfers throughout the terminals to support on-time departures and flight connections throughout the terminals. During delays or disruptions, you will act as the key communication link, liaising directly with handling agents to keep passengers fully informed.
- Ensure Standards & Escalate Quickly: Facilitate a seamless operation by monitoring the environment and ensuring Customer Service Agents (CSAs) are properly equipped, follow correct protocols and maintain high standards. You will stay vigilant by identifying potential SLA failures and escalating issues immediately to the Service Delivery Manager or Allocators to ensure agents are deployed quickly and effectively.
