Shawn Heyden
@shawnheyden
Experienced jewelry sales executive with expertise in customer service.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated professional in the luxury jewelry industry, I bring over eight years of experience in sales, customer service, and operations management. My journey began with an apprenticeship at CHRIST Juweliere, where I honed my skills in merchandising and inventory management. I progressed through various roles, including Sales Consultant and Deputy Store Manager, refining my expertise in team leadership and revenue growth.
In my current role as Service Manager at ZeitZauber-Service, I oversee customer service operations and process optimization. Previously, at CHRIST Juweliere, I managed e-commerce and store-to-online fulfillment, significantly improving sales performance. My ability to enhance customer satisfaction and streamline business processes has been instrumental in driving success across my roles.
Complementing my professional experience, I pursued studies in Business Psychology at FOM University, focusing on consumer behavior and market research. This academic background, combined with my practical expertise, equips me to deliver data-driven solutions that align with business objectives and customer needs.
