@margaretmuhia
Customer-focused insurance and customer service professional with strong digital skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a self-driven customer service and insurance professional with hands-on experience across insurance agencies, e-commerce support, and retail service environments. I combine strong communication, time management and planning skills with practical digital competence to resolve client issues and drive renewals.
At Jumia Kenya I handled high-volume client interactions using Salesforce, social media and live chat, while at multiple insurance agencies I issued policies, performed field sales, and managed claims follow-up to completion. I have a track record of improving customer satisfaction, meeting daily service volumes, and contributing to revenue through cross-sales.
I am committed to applying my critical thinking and Microsoft Office proficiency in roles that value customer relationship management, problem solving and consistent service delivery.
