    • Shell

      Apr 2012 - Apr 2016
      Assistant Manager

      Started as a regular sales associate and then slowly took on more managerial positions. Along with maintaining the gas station while working alone and dealing with incoming customers I would actively work long and busy shifts, aiding owner by taking on store management duties. I'd often have to go on supply runs for restocking goods and dealt with account based costumers. I increased two business accounts that only would pump diesel gas for their company trucks at our gas station location. Maintained good reviews by Shell mystery shoppers for the year of 2013 with average of 98%. Also heavily aided in gaining third place for customer satisfaction of Shell gas stations in Canada in the year 2013. Show less
