What I'm looking for
I am a multilingual customer service and IT support professional with extensive experience in level 1 service desk, account support, and B2B client management. I combine strong communication skills with technical troubleshooting and CRM proficiency to resolve issues efficiently.
Over my career I have worked across telecom, IT services, finance, and consumer electronics support roles, where I handled escalations, maintained documentation, and met SLA targets. I have delivered remote support, managed ticket queues, and supported cloud-based services and deployments.
I bring proven coordination and administrative experience from executive assistant and project coordination roles in public and private sectors, managing stakeholder communication, documentation, and process workflows.
