Anower Shadat

I am a dynamic and results-oriented professional with a proven background in customer support, training, and operational management, driven by a desire for new challenges and professional growth. From January 1, 2025, to August 31, 2025, I gained valuable experience as a Fra nchise and Business Support Manager at Cake House Bakery Ltd, UK. In this role, I was instrumental in supporting the operational success and compliance of franchise partners, ensuring adherence to brand standards, providing direct business consultation, and contributing to the overall profitability and consistency of the network. My foundational experience includes extensive Helpdesk support knowledge as a Supervisor, where I developed strong leadership and problem-solving skills in a high-stakes environment. I spent four years at Worldspan By Travelport KSA, culminating in a promotion to Product Specialist Supervisor. I successfully developed and conducted Worldspan Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced training for thousands of travel agents across KSA, including specialized training for premium agents in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I have professional expertise in Reservation, Fares, Pricing, and full GDS functionality within the tourism sector. I thrive in roles involving Customer Support (Call Center Supervisor), Sales, and Training. I am known for my professionalism and superior customer service support, evidenced by the numerous thank-you emails received from travel agents throughout my tenure. I am eager to leverage my operational support and management experience from the franchise sector, combined with my comprehensive knowledge of customer service and training, to take on new challenges in Customer Service, Call Center, Operations, or Sales within a well-reputed organization. I am also willing to work a flexible schedule.
