During my time working in Customer Services and Sales Advisor roles I have had to utilise communication skills and understand what differing customers needs are and how to most efficiently assist them. I have experience dealing with challenging situations in a calm and polite manner and have had extensive experience in processing card and cash payments and reporting transactions through an electronic till.
I started at Tulley's Farm for the Halloween 'Shocktober Fest,' as Sales Advisor role within the merchandise department. This required me to frequently interact with customers in a polite and professional manner and handle any complaints and refunds as well as frequently using tills for both cash and card transactions. In my time working at the Shocktober Fest I learnt how to co-operate well with my co-workers and calmly tend to customer needs. I then worked with Tully's Farm during their Christmas Festival running various different activities around the site. This was a family event meaning I used my skills of how to interact with young children, assist parents and deal with complaints and any dissatisfied customers in this role of customer service assistant.
Furthermore, I have spent time doing work experience at Fishbourne Roman Palace, Chichester, as a Customer Experience Advisor. This entailed dressing as a roman and working with young children explaining and helping them carry out various different craft activities such as making string from raw wool, paper buckets and other origami. I worked as a volunteer at Fishbourne during many events such as their summer Gladiators event where I was running an SFX makeup stall
