Customer Support Associate
About

A capable Salesman who goes above and beyond call of duty to give clients what they want. Will serve and look after clients from the moment first contact is made. Can be relied upon to work with the rest of a sales team to complete the daily and weekly routines that will keep the store safe, clean, tidy and moving with ease. As a true professional will always perform duties in a safe manner and with an awareness of individual responsibility for every individuals needs. Can be relied upon to effectively develop good long-term relationships with a wide range of clients from all walks of life. I am also curious to experience a range of tasks and opportunities given to me. Passing my GCSE Art in fashion and textiles has given me a passion for fine jewellery, suits and shoes.
