What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth, a collaborative culture, and the chance to leverage my HR and customer service expertise.

I am a results-driven professional with over 7 years of experience in Administration, Human Resource Management, and Customer Service. My career has been marked by a commitment to fostering strong customer relationships and enhancing brand loyalty. I have a proven track record as a bank teller, where I managed financial transactions and addressed complex customer inquiries while preparing detailed reports.

Currently, I serve as a Sales Executive at Prudential Life Insurance, where I prospect for new clients and convert potential clients into active ones. My role involves educating clients on products that best meet their needs and providing exceptional after-sales customer service. Additionally, I own and operate an importation business, managing end-to-end processes and ensuring compliance with trade regulations. My diverse experience has equipped me with strong negotiation skills and the ability to build lasting relationships with clients and suppliers.
