Customer Service Advisor and Care Assistant with 7 years’ experience delivering empathetic support and fast, friendly solutions.
What I'm looking for
I bring 7 years of experience across elderly care and office-based customer service, combining patience, empathy, and respect with clear, helpful communication. I’m dependable and adaptable, confident working with people from all walks of life. I focus on building trust—whether that’s with residents and their wellbeing or customers needing quick, accurate answers.
In care roles, I provide person-centred support for individuals living with dementia, including personal care, continence care, and emotional reassurance to reduce anxiety. I assist with mobility, transfers, and safe moving and handling, while supporting meals, nutrition, and hydration. I monitor physical and mental wellbeing and report changes to senior staff or nurses.
Alongside care, I’ve worked as a Customer Service Advisor handling both inbound and outbound calls, booking quotes, and following up to confirm arrangements. I log customer details in the system, resolve enquiries professionally, and meet call and conversion targets in a fast-paced environment. I’m motivated by delivering a positive experience every time.
