What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers growth opportunities.

I am a motivated and customer-focused Business and Management graduate with over three years of hands-on experience in sales and retail environments. My proven ability to build rapport with diverse customers and resolve queries effectively has allowed me to consistently exceed service targets. I pride myself on my proactive attitude, strong communication skills, and passion for enhancing the customer experience.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Sales Executive at Ford, where I assisted customers through the vehicle purchase process, and Team Leader at Coop, where I ensured legal compliance and maintained high store standards. My experience as a volunteer at the Local Church has further honed my teamwork and customer liaison skills, demonstrating my commitment to community service.

I thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure settings while maintaining a calm and professional demeanor. I am eager to leverage my skills in a challenging new role that allows me to continue delivering exceptional customer service and contribute positively to team dynamics.
