About

Professional summary

I am a customer-focused Customer Success and Support Specialist with experience in claims administration, technical support, customer service, sales support, and administrative coordination. I communicate clearly and empathetically across phone, email, and live chat channels.

In my current claims administration role, I manage 50–100 customer contacts daily while meeting a 24-hour SLA. I process claims, verify customer documents, liaise with underwriters, resolve enquiries, and keep customers informed throughout the process.

I have consistently delivered strong quality and performance outcomes, including 117% effectiveness against a 95% target and 100% QA. I was recognized with a Most Improved certificate in 2026 for my performance.

I am experienced in Salesforce and Zendesk and have supported restaurant partners with account and technical issues. I am comfortable working independently, managing high volumes, and identifying process improvements that reduce unnecessary work.

My background also includes in-person upselling, record-keeping, supplier communication, and securing sponsorship funding through persuasive pitches to businesses, taxi owners, and government institutions. I use AI tools for research, brainstorming, and professional writing.

I am fluent in English, isiZulu, and Afrikaans. Based in Durban, South Africa, I am remote-ready and able to work effectively across time zones overlapping with European and American business hours.

Career history

Claims Administrator – UK Motor Insurance Campaign CCI

I handle 50–100 customer contacts per day across phone, chat, and email while working to a 24-hour SLA. My responsibilities include processing insurance claims, checking claim statuses with underwriters, verifying customer documentation, resolving claim enquiries, and keeping customers updated.

I achieved 117% effectiveness against a 95% target and maintained 100% QA, earning a Most Improved certificate in 2026. I also identified a recurring Claim Revision Due refund issue, consulted the debt recovery team, and escalated the finding to management, contributing to a rule that reduced repeat work and incoming administrative volume.

Customer Service & Technical Support Consultant – Grubhub Campaign CCI

I supported 30–60 restaurant partners per day on the Grubhub campaign. I provided customer service and technical assistance for account-related and operational issues.

I used Salesforce and Zendesk to investigate, document, and resolve cases. I maintained 100% QA and 100% CSAT while delivering timely and professional support.

Restaurant Team Member Thee Kitchen

I took customer orders, recommended relevant add-ons, and explained product benefits clearly. Approximately six out of ten customers purchased more than they initially intended after my recommendations.

I prepared and served food, maintained sales and stock records, and communicated with suppliers. This role strengthened my customer engagement, upselling, accuracy, and operational coordination skills.

Administrative Volunteer & Sponsorship Coordinator Prospa Youth Empowerment

I provided general administrative support for a youth empowerment organization and helped coordinate sponsorship activities for events. I organized event needs and costs to support funding requests.

I secured event funding by pitching local businesses, taxi owners, and government institutions. This work developed my stakeholder communication, proposal presentation, coordination, and relationship-building capabilities.
