1Question

Tell me about a time you handled a difficult client escalation

A major residential client escalated concerns about maintenance response times after 3 urgent repairs took over 48 hours to address. I immediately contacted our maintenance team to understand the delays, which were due to contractor availability. I arranged emergency cover, personally updated the client every 4 hours, and implemented a priority system for their future requests. Within 72 hours, all repairs were completed and I presented a service improvement plan. The client renewed their annual contract worth £180,000 and praised our responsiveness.
2Question

Describe a situation where you had to manage multiple competing client priorities

During a particularly busy month, 5 key clients simultaneously requested urgent property inspections ahead of lease renewals. With only 2 qualified inspectors available, I created a priority matrix based on contract value and deadline urgency. I negotiated flexible scheduling with 3 clients, arranged external inspector support for the largest £300,000 contract, and provided daily progress updates to all parties. All inspections were completed within the required timeframes, resulting in 4 successful lease renewals worth £850,000 total.
