In this omnichannel, customer-centric world, contact centres play a crucial role. Our annual event will help you to deliver a seamless customer experience by getting your culture and technology right.

The Covid-19 pandemic, the shift to digital, heightened customer expectations and a desire to rebalance the landlord-resident relationship are changing the way we interact and deliver services. And contact centres have an increasingly vital role to play.

Housing providers are spending millions to upgrade their contact centres and make them fit for purpose in an age where customers expect a high-quality seamless experience over many different channels.

    But new technology is only part of the solution. Human interactions remain an essential part of the customer experience and contact centre teams play a central role in that relationship.

    That’s why HQN is bringing together leading experts on customer experience and contact centre trends to explore how the world is changing, what needs to be done and the solutions available to stay ahead of the game.

    We will also hear how housing providers are already responding to the challenge.

    We’ll be covering:

    • Future contact centre trends – what you need to know
    • The landlord-resident relationship – understanding the vital role played by contact centres
    • Meeting the needs of vulnerable customers – a primer for contact centre teams
    • How to get your contact centre culture and technology right in a world of hybrid working
    • Delivering a seamless omnichannel customer experience
    • Integrating AI into the customer experience – what you need to know
    • Putting data at the heart of the contact centre
    • What new compliance standards mean for customer interactions.

    You will go away armed with information and plenty of ideas to put into action.
