CHARLENE WRIGHT

Brighton,TN

Summary

I started my career with Concord EFS (now known as First Data) in 1992. I started in retail sales and moved to the Supermarket division in 1994. My job has consisted in calling on supermarkets across the nation to provide them with Electronic Payments Services (credit, debit, EBT, gift card and check services). I have worked extremely close with a number of grocery wholesale companies and their member retailers to sell and promote payments programs and services. Additionally I grew and maintained a number of business relationships with our cash register dealer partners. My goal has always been to offer a “one stop shopping” experience for the customer.
