Cece Suarez
@cecesuarez
Reliable customer-service professional with security experience and strong operational skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a reliable, motivated professional with diverse experience across customer service, food service, retail, warehouse operations, and private security. I combine frontline service skills with operational discipline gained from roles in fast-paced and safety-focused environments.
In food service and retail I managed opening and closing duties, trained staff, handled POS systems (Clover, Standard Retail POS), and met sales and inventory targets while ensuring food-safety standards. I also have experience processing and shipping orders in a warehouse setting, maintaining inventory accuracy and quality control.
My security experience includes mobile patrols, CCTV monitoring, incident reporting, emergency response, and supervising other guards across residential, commercial, and event sites. I emphasize clear written and verbal communication and calm crisis management.
I hold CPR certification, a paraprofessional customer service certificate from Futuro Health Program, and experience with Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I seek roles that let me leverage customer-facing strengths alongside operational or safety responsibilities.
