What I'm looking for

I'm looking for full-time remote support work during UK business hours.

At Jordan Stewart Interiors, I managed client consultations, correspondence, schedules and project requirements as the primary point of contact. I coordinated suppliers, sourcing, purchasing, budgets and timelines, and followed up on decisions and outstanding actions.

At BlueMoonTribe, I handled day-to-day business administration and client communications. I coordinated meetings, deadlines, stakeholder updates and client documentation across simultaneous engagements.

At Integrated Marketing Solutions (IMS), I organised B2B client meetings, presentations and proposals. I tracked client priorities, pipeline records and follow-up actions while coordinating across teams.

At IzweEvents, I led planning and administration for corporate events and projects, coordinating client meetings, travel and event logistics. I prepared quotations, purchase orders, invoices and project documentation while keeping clients updated.
