What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote or contractor opportunities in customer experience, customer operations or international support, where I can resolve complex customer and partner issues across cross-border teams and markets.

At Amberstudent, I coordinate domestic partner agencies and international accommodation providers across the UK and Australia, managing booking cases from enquiry and availability through confirmation and follow-up. I own complex issues involving contracts, payments, cancellations, refunds, commissions and check-in escalations.

I bring 3+ years of customer-facing experience spanning international support, B2B operations and consultative sales. As a native Mandarin speaker with professional working English, I use clear communication across email, phone, WhatsApp and CRM channels to move time-sensitive cases to resolution.
