About
I am seeking an entry-level or junior role in customer service, customer support, administration, business support, operations, service coordination, or project administration. Ideally, I am looking for a remote position, but I am also open to temporary, fixed-term, contract, part-time, or full-time opportunities.
I have over eight years of customer service experience and have developed strong communication, organisational, and problem-solving skills. I also have experience with record keeping, administrative tasks, and supporting a self-employed business through customer quotes, email communication, and day-to-day administration. I am reliable, eager to learn, and looking for an employer where I can continue to develop my skills and build a long-term career.
