I’m a results-driven customer support specialist focused on fast, empathetic resolutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Customer Support Specialist with 4+ years of experience handling high-volume email, chat, and phone support in fast-paced environments. I resolve complex customer issues through empathy and active listening, while maintaining strict SLA targets and high customer satisfaction.
I’ve managed customer tickets and follow-ups using CRM systems—including HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, and monday.com—ensuring accurate documentation and consistent communication. At PHIL & DRE CONSTRUCTION LTD, I contributed to a 30% improvement in response time through proactive follow-ups, and earlier at First Bank of Nigeria I handled 90+ inquiries daily, improved first-contact resolution, and identified a fraudulent transaction to protect a customer.
