Friendly customer service professional with strong telesales experience.
What I'm looking for
As a hardworking and bubbly individual, I am eager to resume my professional career after dedicating time to raising my family. I possess excellent telephone manners and strong organizational skills, which have been honed through various roles in customer service, reception duties, and telesales.
In my most recent position as a Telemarketing Executive, I successfully called potential customers, arranged appointments, and worked towards sales targets while maintaining a high level of customer satisfaction. My previous experience as a Telesales Advisor has equipped me with the ability to handle high call volumes, defuse customer complaints, and effectively promote products and services tailored to customer needs.
I am passionate about delivering exceptional service and thrive in team environments while also being able to take initiative when needed. I look forward to bringing my skills and positive attitude to a new role.
