Summary

Motivated and friendly with experience across a vast amount of customer service and administration roles both in office, and work from home. I have extensive experience in pharmacy with a career spanning 18 years working within several very specialised areas. I genuinely enjoy the administration aspects of my current position with Bupa and customer service, and I believe I excel in this area. My experience with customer enquiries and sales my entire working career would be an advantage to an administration position. I have proven results strengthening customer rapport with positivity, knowledge, and professionalism. I have a proven ability to learn new skills and apply them effectively and enjoy any opportunity where i am able too expand my skillset and apply them to benefit the business i work for and the customers i'm dealing with.
