Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to send you my resume, which I found via POSTJOBFORFREE. My experience and skills in the field of Dispatch/Customer Service/Sales make me particularly motivated to join your team.
Currently I am the Director of Operations for an appliance company. I take care of all calls, emails, sales, distribution (shipping) and escalations. I am the 1st point of contact to our distributors, shippers, customers and various vendors.
I have a solid background in customer service, sales, support and administrative tasks. My previous position at S1 Global Transportation (ended during the Pandemic) allowed me to develop specific skills in Carrier Quotes, Customer Service and After-Sales Service.
I have worked remotely for the last 7 years and am well-versed in that area, as well as full-time office work. I am a motivator and team leader with results.
I am convinced that my passion for Customer Service, Customer retention and overall service would be an asset to your team. As a sales and customer service representative, I am confident that my contribution could greatly benefit your organization. My commitment to excellence and my mature, quick-learning abilities positions me as an ideal candidate for this position. I would be happy to discuss my application in more detail in an interview.
I have good PC Skills, Salesforce, ZenDesk, RAM Systems, OFFICE, etc…
We are moving to France.
I thank you in advance for your consideration of my request and remain at your disposal to arrange an interview at your convenience.
