• Skilled in SQL, Power BI, and Jet Analytics (Power Automate a plus).
• Solid understanding of financial statements and performance metrics.
• Excellent attention to detail, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Comfortable working independently, managing multiple projects, and meeting deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

Why join us?
