What I'm looking for
I am a high-performing and results-oriented credit officer with a robust background in asset finance. My professional journey is supported by a diploma in procurement and supplies management, which has provided me with a solid foundation in financial principles and practices. Over the years, I have gained considerable experience focusing on structured microfinance and medium-sized enterprises, honing my skills in portfolio management and distribution strategies.
My interpersonal communication and relationship-building abilities are among my strongest assets. I prioritize clear and persuasive communication, ensuring that I effectively convey information and ideas to clients and colleagues alike. My role as a retail officer has further enhanced my customer service skills, where I consistently engage in outbound calls, follow up on payments, and manage client portfolios with care and attention.
Having worked remotely for the past year, I have developed an aptitude for collaborating with distributed teams, which has enabled me to foster a high-performing remote culture. My strong problem-solving skills play a critical role in addressing customer issues promptly and effectively, ensuring client satisfaction. I am committed to continuous improvement and professional development, allowing me to stay updated with industry trends and best practices.
