Sarah Renne
@sarahrenne
I resolve customer needs, manage bookings, and keep remote administration organised in English and French.
What I'm looking for
I've built 10+ years of client-facing experience across hospitality, international yacht environments, and self-employment. I deliver calm, accurate customer service under pressure and communicate professionally in English and French.
While running my dog-training business, I independently managed client communication, scheduling, enquiries, bookings, follow-ups, and day-to-day administration. I'm now looking to bring that remote-style client management experience to a customer support or virtual administration role.
