Summary

I was born in 1989 and recently got married with one toddler boy. I reside in Oudtshoorn and speak Afrikaans and English fluently. I am courteous, polite and a well-spoken gentleman with exceptional organizational skills. I possess a good team spirit and is quite deadline orientated, seeing that I am a sales specialist for the past five years consecutively. I have sheer passion for the telecommunications industry. I pride myself in always giving my best for my colleagues, work and clients. I am helpful and approachable but also very commercially minded. I have the ability to promote and maximise sales opportunities through upselling at all times. I love to recruit, train, manage and develop the team I am responsible for. I am a quick learner who can absorb new ideas and implement them to suit the task that I am handed with. I communicate clearly and effectively to my clients that I sign and always try to find a solution that suits the needs of my clients. I am able to adapt to the environment and circumstances to ensure smooth workflow. I constantly portray a highly professional image not only of the business that I am employed at, but also of myself and I pay particular attention to client satisfaction and efficiency. I am keen to find a suitable position within an ambitious facility where I will be able to continue to increase work experience and develop my abilities.
