What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills and offers growth opportunities in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated customer service professional with extensive experience in the call center industry and retail administration. Currently, I work as a Sales & Service Advisor at FirstRand Bank, where I excel in resolving customer queries, managing client relationships, and preparing loan documents. My ability to assess client character and provide tailored solutions has significantly contributed to customer satisfaction and retention.

Previously, I have held various roles, including Teller at G4S Cash Solutions and Customer Service Agent at Webhelp Outsourcing. In these positions, I honed my skills in money handling, complaint resolution, and effective communication with clients. My tenure at Game Retail Stores as a Store Secretary and Cash Office Assistant further solidified my administrative capabilities and attention to detail, ensuring smooth operations and excellent customer service.
