Work Experience

Customer Service Representative

Sutherland South Africa

Apr 2025 - Present

Key Achievements:

As a customer service representative, I support hosts with navigating their dashboard, managing reservations, and optimizing their listings to help increase their earnings. I also assist guests with making a reservation, processing check-in, and check-outs, and I handle operational tasks such as sending check-out cleans to cleaners and coordinating with contractors for property maintenance. I assist with travel bookings, tour customizations, and flight arrangements, while also handling trip payment plan and discounts. Currently, I'm on the Offline Escalation Team, where I resolve complex cases such as releasing payouts, approving cancellation waivers, and reviewing guest review removal requests to ensure policy compliance.
