What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a challenging motor industry environment where I can use my aftersales, warranty, customer service, and problem-solving experience to enhance customer experiences and support business objectives.

I've supported aftersales operations at Volvo Trucks Port Elizabeth, MAN Trucks Port Elizabeth, Tavcor Motor Group, Eastern Cape Motors, and Port Elizabeth Chevrolet. My work spans service advising, warranty administration, customer bookings, job cards, invoicing, and payments.

At MAN Trucks, I loaded warranty and maintenance claims, followed up on short payments and claim rejections, handled account queries, and provided 24-hour breakdown standby support every second week. I dispatched technicians, followed repairs, and kept customers informed throughout the process.

At Volvo Trucks, I managed warranty job cards, campaigns, parts claims, maintenance order numbers, goodwill requests, claim invoicing, remittances, and account reconciliations. I've also assisted with debtors, cash sales, and workshop-related accounts.

I'm detail-oriented, organised, and comfortable working under pressure to meet tight deadlines. I bring strong customer communication, problem-solving, and administrative support skills to the motor industry.
