About YourRepair

YourRepair, now part of Hometree following its acquisition in 2022, was founded to provide high-quality, customer-focused home and boiler care plans across the UK. With years of expertise in plumbing and gas engineering, YourRepair offers fixed-price plans covering boilers, heating, plumbing, and electrical systems for homeowners and landlords alike.

This role is about more than answering questions. It’s about building trust, solving problems thoughtfully, and making every interaction a positive experience. You’ll work closely with a supportive, inclusive team where your voice is heard, alongside other departments to deliver excellent service and continuously improve how we work.

You’ll also benefit from real opportunities to grow and develop your skills, while making a genuine difference to customers every day. We understand the importance of balance too, offering flexibility to help you manage work and life in a way that works for you.

  • Building Knowledge: Develop a strong understanding of our products and services so you can guide customers effectively.

  • Managing Orders: Assist with orders, returns, and exchanges smoothly and efficiently.

  • Keeping Records Accurate: Maintain up-to-date customer information to ensure a seamless experience.

  • Working Together: Collaborate with teammates and other departments to solve problems and improve service.

  • Listening & Improving: Capture customer feedback and help identify ways we can do better.

  • Delivering Quality: Meet response times and service standards while maintaining a high level of care and professionalism.

What we’re looking for:

  • Customer Service Experience: Around 12–18 months in a customer-facing role (or similar transferable experience).

  • People-Focused Mindset: You genuinely enjoy helping others and creating positive experiences.

  • Confident & Proactive: Comfortable taking initiative and finding solutions.

  • Organised & Detail-Oriented: You take pride in getting things right and seeing tasks through.

  • Adaptable Multitasker: Able to switch between systems and communication channels with ease.

  • Strong Communicator: Clear, thoughtful, and professional in both written and verbal communication.

  • Empathetic & Approachable: You build rapport easily and handle sensitive situations with care.

  • Resilient: Able to stay calm and focused, even when things get busy or challenging.

  • Collaborative: You value teamwork and support those around you.

What We Do

Hometree is a home energy services company on a mission to accelerate the transition to net zero. By fixing, installing and financing home energy hardware, we're helping homeowners transition to low-carbon living, when they’re ready. Heating is responsible for 14% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the UK. If we're serious about hitting those net zero goals to mitigate the climate emergency, we need to act. The transition has already begun but it’s a mammoth task and it won’t happen overnight. We know the challenges on the table – with soaring energy costs, expensive heat pumps and home infrastructure challenges, homeowners are left with many pressing questions - which option should I choose - heat pump or hydrogen boiler? Who will install the equipment - and- how will I afford it? That's where Hometree comes in. We understand that homeowners will make the journey at their own pace - and our role is to assist them along the way. Today, we offer boiler and home emergency cover - but we’re rapidly expanding our products and services to install and finance low-carbon home energy hardware, so that we can help steer more UK homeowners to a cleaner and brighter future. Decarbonisation will transform the way we all heat our homes and this is just the start of the Hometree journey. Let's transform home energy together
