Export Operations Supervisor Position

When I saw the posting of Export Operations Supervisor, it immediately caught my interest. Rarely have I found a position so closely matched to my own experience, skills, and educational direction as your Export Operations Supervisor job is to mine. Here is hoping the same is true in your search for the right person.

I am a seasoned sales and customer service professional having excelled in several industries. My customers have included business owners, corporate executives, and physicians in vital specialties. I am seeking a position where I can use these valuable skills and experiences to reach goals and efficiencies contributing to the tangible success of my employer. Hallmarks of my career have been highly developed organizational skills, attention to detail and fiscal responsibility, and a trouble free record indicating a high moral character. Most recently, my time has been spent caring for an aging parent, but as those duties now require involved nursing care, my strong desire is to return to compensated work.

Even the best resume or job description cannot replace a site visit or face interview, but it is a good start. If my message here leads you to continue, I am available to meet to learn more about the position. You may reach me at (843) 762-1178 or rdtheiling@comcast.net.
