Customer-first, detail-driven, and ready to make your customers' day easier. I bring 5 years of banking customer service and operations experience.
What I'm looking for
I've spent five years in customer service and operations at a bank in Kenya, most recently as a Branch Operations Assistant. I handle an average of 60 client inquiries a week by phone and in person, maintaining a 90% satisfaction score while keeping accurate CRM records and meeting strict service targets. Earlier, as a Customer Product Advisor, I used a consultative approach that grew product uptake per customer by 50%. I also completed Executive Partner training with Athena, sharpening my communication and decision-making under pressure.
I'm now looking to bring that same care and accuracy to a fully remote Customer Service or Virtual Assistant role where I can grow long-term.
