@ammarabaig
Law graduate with experience in fraud analysis and customer support.
What I'm looking for
I am a law graduate from the University of Leeds, where I honed my skills as a Student Ambassador and developed a strong foundation in legal principles. My academic journey has been complemented by diverse professional experiences, including roles in customer support and fraud analysis at Barclays Bank PLC, where I effectively facilitated financial interactions and analyzed cybercrime threats.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to excellence and a passion for helping others. My role as a Trainee Solicitor at Kennedys Law LLP allowed me to refine my attention to detail while proofreading legal documents and ensuring compliance with industry standards. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am adept at managing multiple tasks while maintaining a high level of accuracy.
In addition to my professional experiences, I actively engage in volunteer work, contributing to local charities and supporting community initiatives. I am fluent in Urdu and have conversational skills in Punjabi, which enhances my ability to connect with diverse clients. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a challenging role that allows me to make a meaningful impact.
