LEARNING ABILITY AND WORK PROFICIENCY

Richel has worked across customer service, facilities management and Australian Real Estate administration, adapting to different systems and processes as her responsibilities have changed.

Her previous Real Estate work required her to manage information across property systems, email, calendars and supporting documents. She has also worked with different client processes, from maintaining property records and preparing sales listings to supporting lease renewals and reception activities.

Her continued Real Estate development has expanded her exposure to additional tenancy and sales workflows, providing opportunities to build on the administrative experience she has already gained through live client work.

INTERPERSONAL SKILLS AND PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS

Richel brings experience communicating with customers, Property Managers, property owners, suppliers, technicians and other business contacts.

Her previous contact centre and training roles involved customer-facing communication, while her facilities management work required her to coordinate between clients and service providers. In her current Real Estate role, she continues to apply these skills through owner updates, supplier correspondence, Property Manager follow-ups and reception calls.

This combination supports roles where professional communication is closely connected to scheduling, documentation and administrative coordination.

SUITABILITY

Richel is suitable for Real Estate Administration, Property Management Administration, and General Administrative Support roles, particularly where responsibilities involve property and lease records, email and calendar management, maintenance coordination, customer enquiries, and ongoing administrative support.

WHY RICHEL IS SUITABLE FOR THE ROLE

Richel offers a combination of practical Australian Real Estate experience, established customer service skills, and previous maintenance-related administrative experience.

Since joining Affordable Staff, she has supported property listings, lease renewal administration, property and contact records, maintenance requests, owner and supplier correspondence, email management, and reception activities. Her experience with Kolmeo, Aro, and PropertyMe provides familiarity with systems and workflows used in Australian Real Estate businesses.

Her earlier facilities management roles add experience coordinating work orders, scheduling technicians, maintaining service documentation, and communicating with clients and suppliers. These responsibilities transfer naturally to the maintenance and operational administration required in Property Management.

Richel also brings more than three years of contact centre experience, including progression into a training role, alongside an English education background. Her current Real Estate training and development continue to broaden her knowledge of Australian tenancy and sales processes.

For an Australian Real Estate client, Richel brings existing industry support experience, practical system exposure, a background in service coordination, and established professional communication experience.
