Your role and work environment

At ING, customer satisfaction is more than a goal—it’s the core of our strategy.

In today’s digital world, our customers are increasingly self-reliant, but every interaction—whether human or technology-driven—remains a critical touchpoint. We want to be the first to integrate the hospitality mindset of the hotel sector within our banking industry.

That’s where Client Services and, specifically, the Hospitality Center, come into play.

The Hospitality Center is the heart of ING’s customer-centric culture, dedicated to ensuring that each interaction exceeds customer expectations and reflects the ING Touch. This team within Client Services is tasked with supporting our Customer Loyalty Teams (CLTs)—internally, externally, and offshored in Manila—empowering them to deliver excellent, seamless customer experiences across every channel, whether written, verbal, or AI-driven.

This role requires an orange mindset, ownership, engagement, flexibility, commitment, innovation, and team spirit to maintain a high level of client experience. A passion for customer experience, an agile mindset, and the ability to leverage data-driven insights to guide improvements are essential.
