We are looking for someone who is proactive, reliable, and composed under pressure.

6. Perform other related tasks as assigned by management.

Requirements:

1. Must be able to start immediately (ASAP).
2. Prior experience in a call centre or customer service role is an advantage but not mandatory.
3. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and Google Workspace.
4. Excellent verbal communication and active listening skills.
