I am a customer service and operations professional with supervisory experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a customer-service and operations professional with experience across retail, call centers and supervisory roles.
I secured permanent work at a major e-commerce customer service centre handling US and UK queues and resolving order, billing and product issues across shifts. I have supervised receiving teams, performed quality-assurance data capture, and led loss-prevention measures in retail environments.
I take pride in hands-on problem solving, reliability and mentoring junior staff, and I seek a stable role where I can contribute to operations, customer experience and team leadership.
