The Extra Help Unit (EHU) provides support to vulnerable domestic consumers and micro-businesses across Great Britain with their energy complaints. As defined in the CEAR Act 2007, the EHU has statutory duties to deal with cases where the consumer’s energy supply has been disconnected or is at risk of imminent disconnection. The Unit also has statutory powers to support vulnerable consumers. A person may be deemed to be vulnerable due to their personal circumstances, the complexity or urgency of their complaint. The EHU is a referral only service with agreed referral partners including Citizens Advice Consumer Service, Ofgem and Ombudsman Services: Energy.

As a Caseworker within the Extra Help Unit, you will carry out an important role by investigating and resolving energy complaints on behalf of vulnerable consumers. You will ensure that the consumer’s personal circumstances and any detriment caused by supplier failures are fully considered when negotiating an outcome. You will deal with a range of callers who are often upset, angry or stressed about their situation. Callers may also be experiencing financial difficulties, or have mental or physical health conditions. You will be expected to support consumers in a respectful, inclusive and non-judgemental manner.

The Caseworker role is both challenging and rewarding, with the majority of complaints and circumstances being complex in nature. You will get to work within a great team, and within a constantly changing energy market with the opportunity to make a difference to people’s lives.

Please note that the offer of employment for this role will be subject to a receipt of a satisfactory Basic Disclosure Certificate.
