What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a customer-focused operations/desk management role where I can drive revenue and conversion using Power BI and Excel, manage schedules and teams, and keep onsite delivery smooth through clear data and calm escalation support.

I’m a Desk Manager focused on keeping onsite work running smoothly while prioritising customer satisfaction. I’m confident working in fast-moving environments, handling escalations, and turning enquiry data into clear weekly progress.

In my current role (MAT cover), I manage a small team across mixed responsibilities to help exceed a £2.5 million turnover. I drive revenue weekly, record conversion rates from enquiries, and use Power BI and Microsoft tools to detail and graph performance—while also approving/disputing credits and maintaining a rate below 0.5% annually.

Before this, I worked as an Office Manager at Academy1 International, where I upheld daily business operations, supported staff and client needs, managed payroll, handled HR requirements, and coordinated contracts with schools/third parties and interpreters. I bring strong administration skills (Excel/Word), customer/client relationship building, and a safety-minded approach grounded in safeguarding, risk assessments, data protection, and whistleblowing.
