Customer Service Jobs in Alton, IL

A Customer Service Representative in the banking industry serves as the primary point of contact for customers, providing essential support for their banking needs. Representatives interact with customers via numerous channels - such as phone, email, or in-person - to answer inquiries, resolve issues, and provide information about banking products and services.

Knowledge of CRM software and experience in the banking or financial sector are typically preferable. While specific certifications aren't usually required, a degree in business or finance can be advantageous. Some may also pursue certifications in customer service, such as the Certified Customer Service Professional (CCSP) designation. Prior roles that can lead to a Customer Service position in banking include Teller, Customer Service Assistant, or Sales Associate in the finance or retail sector.
