My role was to support Sonovate’s operational performance through effective and timely management administration tasks multi-tasking using a range of tools and applications.

I had to assess the quality for timesheets and placements that are processed by our service/administration team. I’m also involved in finessing process improvements, while complying with all aspects of the company’s vision to top customer satisfaction. I completed quality inspections on 100% of timesheets and placements in a timely manner recording, analysing and reporting on the outcomes of these inspections to the Oversight Team Leader. I would complete a full and prompt investigation of errors found making sure that corrective and preventative actions were put in place. Working directly with the Processing Oversight Team Leader we would assess if training was required to help colleagues or whether to put certain measures in place. We promote and champion a “Get It Right First Time” approach across processing and also have our work monitored. I ensure all timesheet and placement checklists are kept up to date and relevant, updating and creating relevant training manuals and bespoke process manuals for the team. Constantly fostering a continuous drive toward improving the departments - suggesting ideas for areas that need changing or require more focus. I liaise with various departments via meetings/workshops to brainstorm and share ideas/suggestions.Further to this I also took responsibility for other projects working closely with our Finance department. I’ve taken the lead on ensuring training manuals and process are kept up to date. I work to strict deadlines creating reports and keep in contact with recruitment agencies and their clients to maintain a strong working relationship.

I took ownership of and resolve all customer contact through the mediums of Facebook and Twitter. This can range from store service complaints to sensitive media enquiries. I am often asked to support the Moderation and Quality Assurance team. I will moderate all contact before it goes to the team ensuring that all inappropriate or high risk contact is removed. I then distribute the rest of the contact to the relevant queues to ensure a short response time. I also approve or reject my peer’s responses before they go public. I have to stay ahead of current trends to ensure I moderate and approve or reject appropriately, always keeping the brand image in mind.Achievements: I contributed to my operation in Tesco coming 10th in Social Media Customer Service via Facebook and Twitter.

I obtained a role on the first Customer Service WebChat team. I took multiple chats concurrently and was targeted on response times. The chat is live so there’s no safety net for my responses, I had to stay focused at all times. To improve first contact resolution and time between chats I’d call stores and log the issue whilst still on the chat.

I first started at Tesco on a temporary basis. I showed improvement and consistency in my work and then obtained a permanent role taking calls. I took calls for numerous departments and am fully comfortable using computers and a telephony system. I Also started to manage incoming customer contact via e-mail. It was KPI driven and I achieved consistency in my stats and often received ‘Values’ awards for providing excellent service.
