What I'm looking for
At Booking.com through TTEC, I support customers with reservations, booking changes, cancellations, payments and travel-related enquiries. I use Pega and TED to manage cases and operational workflows while working to service quality and SLA standards.
At TFT Foods, I communicated with customers, suppliers and business partners across international markets, supported sales activities, and prepared quotations and business documentation. I also coordinated with suppliers and logistics partners.
Earlier, I managed FMCG sales across wholesale, retail and HORECA channels at Charoen Pokphand Intertrade South Africa. Across my roles in sales, account management and customer service, I’ve worked with customers and business partners in international environments.
