@yaabaforjoe
I manage customer journeys, property operations, and time-sensitive service delivery.
What I'm looking for
I'm managing day-to-day short-term rental operations at Parker’s Place, coordinating reservations, guest communication, cleaning, maintenance, suppliers, and time-sensitive issue resolution.
I previously built and ran Favoured Homemade Desserts, owning every stage from enquiries and quotations to payments, fulfilment, follow-up, inventory, and delivery. My administrative work at Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs also strengthened my French-English communication, scheduling, travel coordination, correspondence, and confidential information handling.
