• Good report writing skills, explaining complex concepts in clear and concise written form. Ability to communicate complex subjects and their dependencies to non-experts in a simple and accessible manner.
• Presentation skills, comfortable with speaking in public.
• Committed to delivering high quality output that is valued by clients. Results‑focussed and self‑managing with ability to prioritise and work independently.
