About Us
Untamed is a premium cat food company dedicated to providing high-quality nutrition for cats. We’re a fast-growing eCommerce business based in London with a passionate customer base and an uncompromising commitment to excellence — both in our products and our service. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a driven and passionate Customer Care Team Lead to elevate our phone support function.
About the Role
We’re looking for an experienced, people-first Team Lead to manage our Phone Support function within our Customer Care department. You’ll manage a team of remote agents dedicated specifically to phone support. Your mission is to ensure that every customer call delivers the kind of service that sets us apart; compassionate, friendly, and deeply customer-cat focused.
Lead the Phone Support Team

• Conduct regular QA of calls and 1:1s.
• Deliver tailored onboarding and ongoing training for phone agents.
• Build a culture centred on customer satisfaction and genuine compassion and interest in our customers and their cats.
• Take customer calls regularly to stay hands-on, lead by example, and stay deeply connected to the customer experience.
• Personally handle complex or escalated calls with professionalism and care.
• Ensure all phone interactions align with our brand and service values.
Performance & Reporting
• Own and track key phone metrics: call volume, handling time, CSAT, resolution rate, etc.
• Use performance data to identify areas for improvement.
• Share insights with leadership to inform broader CX strategy.
Operational Oversight
• Monitor real-time queues and adjust workflows as needed.
• Collaborate with other Team Leads (e.g. Email Support) to ensure cross-channel consistency.
• Maintain and improve phone processes, guidance, and documentation.
What We’re Looking For
• 3+ years in customer care, with 1+ years leading a phone support team.
• Proven coaching and QA experience, with strong performance management skills.
• Comfortable leading remote teams and supporting hybrid team growth.
• Proficient in CRM and phone analytics tools.
• Excellent verbal communication and coaching abilities.
What We Offer
We are offering an annual salary of £27,000 as well as access to our benefits. At Untamed, our commitment to health and happiness doesn’t end with cats: we actively invest in the growth and development of the brilliant people who are helping to build our cat food revolution.
