What I'm looking for

I am seeking a front-desk or administrative role in a professional, customer-focused organization where I can use my multilingual communication, hospitality experience, and strong administrative skills to support operations and guest satisfaction.

I am an experienced multilingual receptionist and administrative professional with a long history in hospitality and service organisations. I have worked in international hotels and development organisations, providing front-desk support, reservations, switchboard operation, and guest services while delivering informal translation between English, Russian and Tajik.

My background includes roles as Assistant to the General Manager, Assistant to the Front Office Manager and Reservation Officer at Dushanbe Serena Hotel, duty receptionist at Comfort Inn (Kings Cross, London), and receptionist positions with AKDN and AKHS. I maintain strong computer skills across Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Access, and have a typing speed up to 60 wpm.

I bring reliable administrative support, appointment and meeting organization, mail and supplies management, and professional visitor reception. I work well in multinational teams, have experience coordinating with government and NGO partners, and prioritize clear communication, organization and a customer-focused approach.
