What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a fast-paced team where I can own customer tickets end-to-end, meet strict SLA targets, and deliver empathetic, accurate resolutions. I thrive in remote support environments with clear processes and room to improve response times.

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.
