Multilingual operations and customer-success professional with leadership in hospitality and airport services.
What I'm looking for
I am a multilingual operations and customer-success professional with experience leading teams in hospitality and airport environments. I hold TOEIC 990 and JLPT N1, enabling effective communication across diverse, multinational teams.
I have worked as a manager in hotel operations, handling staff management, customer service, financial oversight, and security measures, and I contributed to achieving operational goals through leadership and coordination.
In Japan I expanded into airport operations, customer success at an IT company, back-office functions, and project management, often operating in multi-tasking, cross-functional roles for organizations of roughly 70 staff.
I am motivated to apply my operational expertise, language skills, and cross-cultural experience to improve efficiency and strengthen organizational capability in a results-focused company.
