NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I am a results-driven banking sales professional with experience onboarding customers, profiling clients for mobile and agency banking, mobilizing deposits, and supporting agent networks across multiple Nigerian banks. I bring a strong customer-first approach and proven ability to reactivate dormant accounts and resolve point-of-sale issues.
My work history spans roles as a Firstmonie Sales Executive, Marketing Associate, and Direct Sales Agent where I consistently introduced new customers, tracked transactions, and supported branch and agent operations. I complement frontline experience with a B.A. in History and International Studies and certified human resources training.

I seek opportunities to apply my sales, customer service, and onboarding strengths to help financial institutions grow deposits and agent networks.
