Ellie Dennis
@elliedennis
Customer service professional and crisis-support specialist who de-escalates high-risk cases and delivers accurate, procedure-led support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a customer service professional who thrives on high-volume, procedure-led environments—handling up to 60 daily inquiries, resolving complex queries at first contact, and liaising between departments to keep service delivery efficient. I process payments accurately using systems like Webpay, Jirni, and Adigisys, while maintaining secure, compliant handling of sensitive information.
In parallel, I delivered multi-channel crisis support, de-escalating 100% of high-risk situations through real-time risk assessment and evidence-based de-escalation techniques. I maintained 100% compliance in SOAP/DAP documentation, achieved a 96% training score across practical modules, and bring the same attention to detail to retail and hospitality roles—pricing, till/cash handling, stock organization, and customer-focused issue resolution.
