I turn inbound customer conversations into sales, retention, and practical solutions under pressure.
What I'm looking for
I handled emergency roadside assistance cases at ANWB S.O.S. International, supporting Dutch customers stranded across Europe from their first call through resolution.
I diagnosed vehicle issues by phone, negotiated repair slots with local garages, and coordinated rental cars and accommodation while keeping customers calm and informed.
At FBTO Zorgverzekering, I sold health insurance through inbound calls, using needs-based questions to match customers with suitable coverage. I converted service conversations into sales and upsold dental, physiotherapy, and extra coverage modules while handling objections around price and benefits.
I also built customer-facing sales experience in restaurant service and retail, recommending extras, resolving complaints, and helping customers quickly. I speak Dutch, English, and Turkish, learn new products and systems quickly, and actively seek challenges that help me grow.
