• Excellent communicator who can translate technical detail into clear business outcomes and influence at all levels.
• Documentation of conversations, crystalising actions and holding internal team and other stakeholders to account.
• Analytical thinker with strong problem-solving skills and sound commercial judgment.
• Comfortable working in a developing, foundational environment and helping shape processes and frameworks as the organisation matures.
• Highly organised, proactive and collaborative, with a hands-on approach and openness to new ideas.
