Mercy Ujah
@mercyujah1
Business Development Executive combining customer growth with KYC-compliant service and safety awareness.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly motivated, detail-oriented Administrative and Safety professional with over 2 years of experience spanning office administration, occupational health and safety, and customer service. I bring strong interpersonal and analytical skills to improve organizational efficiency while ensuring compliance with workplace standards.
In customer-facing roles, I’ve handled client onboarding end-to-end by opening new accounts and ensuring complete KYC (Know Your Customer) documentation. I support customers with account requests such as balance inquiries, withdrawals, deposits, and fund transfers, while educating them on microfinance products and encouraging digital banking adoption.
On the safety and administrative side, I supported the development and implementation of OHS policies and programs, conducted risk assessments, and enforced preventive measures. I organized trainings, investigated incidents, prepared detailed reports, and oversaw inspections to ensure workplace safety compliance.
Now, I’m focused on driving business growth through sales—identifying new customers, promoting credit products, assisting with loan applications, maintaining customer relationships, and meeting sales targets. I aim to deliver excellent service with accurate documentation and strict adherence to company policies and regulatory requirements.
