What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and enthusiastic professional with a strong background in administration and customer service. Currently, I am self-employed, creating personalized gifts and managing all aspects of my business, from advertising to financial management. My experience includes working as an Administration and Finance Lead, where I honed my skills in payments, data entry, and record keeping.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles that have allowed me to develop a diverse skill set. As an Identity Verification Assistant, I was responsible for reviewing identity documents and ensuring accuracy in data entry. My time as a School Administrator and Receptionist involved multitasking in a fast-paced environment, where I managed communications, maintained records, and ensured compliance with safeguarding regulations. I thrive in team settings and am always eager to learn and adapt to new challenges.
