Summary

Highly developed interpersonal skills and professionalism have been shaped within careers of teaching, reception, secretarial and customer service. I am seeking a positive client-facing role where the contribution of my warmth, enthusiasm, compassion and genuine care in meeting the needs of their clientele, is highly valued. With a ‘can-do’ attitude, approachable, calm and cheerful demeanour, day-to-day operations and administrative tasks are always carried out with great attention to detail and energy. Any new learning of procedures and systems is grasped in a timely manner with ease and efficiency. Harmonious team relationships are as important to me, as is creating a seamless, caring, and memorable experience for every client.
