Member Operations Lead

Kindred Mutual , London

£75–90k

A mutual building a fairer current account. You run the member desk and the playbooks behind it. This is not a call-centre manager role.

The company

Kindred Mutual is a small mutual with a banking licence in progress and a member base that writes long emails. They want operations that feel human and still scale past the founders' inboxes.

The team

A desk of six, plus you. The COO is your manager and is tired of being the escalation path.

First months

Rewrite the five playbooks people actually use, hire one specialist, and cut the median first-response time without sounding like a bot.

The work

  • Lead the member desk day to day
  • Write playbooks for disputes, onboarding, and vulnerable members
  • Choose the tools. They are not married to the current helpdesk
  • Report a weekly ops note with the numbers and the stories

You will likely have

  • Ran a support or member desk in fintech, mutual, or a regulated product
  • Wrote the docs, not only managed the people
  • London, four days in Shoreditch while the licence work is hot
  • Judgement about when a member needs a person

Two doors. Same desk.

Hiring managers send a brief. Candidates send a CV. A person reads both.
