Proactive professional transitioning into a remote Live Chat Agent role.
What I'm looking for
As a proactive and organized professional with a strong background in healthcare science and IT systems, I am now seeking to transition into a remote Live Chat Agent role. My experience has equipped me with the skills to deliver clear, empathetic, and efficient communication while managing multiple digital platforms and troubleshooting complex queries.
During my time as a Trainee Biomedical Scientist at North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, I honed my ability to communicate effectively with internal departments and clinicians, resolving urgent specimen and data queries. I maintained quality control and managed digital records with precision, ensuring accurate data entry in Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) and Winpath. My commitment to professionalism and work ethic has been demonstrated through my ability to work independently and my strong record of continuous professional development.
I am passionate about providing excellent virtual support experiences and am skilled in maintaining service quality under pressure. With a solid foundation in customer service and technical literacy, I am eager to leverage my skills in a remote role that values clear communication and problem-solving.
