About you

You’ll be someone who can look beyond the immediate system request to understand the underlying business need. Technology won’t always be the answer, so you’ll be comfortable challenging requirements, asking the right questions and working collaboratively to identify the most effective solution.

You’ll be organised, adaptable and able to manage multiple priorities while building positive relationships across the business.

You’ll also demonstrate our values of Respect, Aspire, Courage, One Team and Diversity.
