What I'm looking for
I am a recent graduate with a BSc in Business and Finance, eager to leverage my skills in client relationship management and project coordination to enhance business services and client satisfaction. My academic background, combined with hands-on experience in customer service, has equipped me with the ability to build effective relationships and support revenue-driven initiatives.
Throughout my work experience, I have honed my communication and problem-solving skills, particularly in roles such as Customer Service Representative at Capita and during my internship in Wealth Management at Investec. I am bilingual, hardworking, and ready to contribute to a dynamic team that values growth and client satisfaction.
