Uthman Lawal

I am hardworking, dedicated and focused on every task I'm handed; I bring a strong record of accomplishment of delivering exceptional customer service and driving sales within the retail sector. My tenure with Specsavers as a volunteer has provided me with extensive experience in customer engagement, sales techniques, and front-of-house support. In addition to my professional experience, my extracurricular involvement in Tottenham Hotspur programs and fluency in French have further developed my teamwork, leadership, and communication skills.

I am eager to use my diverse skill set to contribute to a dynamic team and ensure an excellent customer experience.
