Detail-oriented office coordinator with strong customer service skills.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced office coordinator and administrator with a strong background in customer service and administrative tasks. My journey began at YAM Trading, where I honed my skills in managing invoices, receipts, and customer communications. I take pride in ensuring that all office records are meticulously organized and that payments are received promptly. My academic background in Biology, complemented by my thesis on Population Dynamics of Commercial Shrimp Species, has equipped me with analytical skills that I apply in my professional endeavors.
Currently, I work at the British Council Bahrain, where I efficiently manage the logistics of IELTS and other professional exams. My role requires me to multitask effectively, ensuring a smooth flow of operations while maintaining a positive experience for all candidates. I am adaptable and thrive in dynamic environments, always ready to take on new challenges and responsibilities.
