• Identify and communicate opportunities for upselling and cross-selling additional services throughout the onboarding journey.

What you\'ll bring

• Strong project management and implementation experience.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

• Ability to translate technical concepts into clear, user-friendly language for non-technical audiences.

• Exceptional planning, organisational and time-management skills.

• Strong stakeholder management, influencing and relationship-building abilities.
