• Proven leadership skills with the ability to manage, develop and inspire a team.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to influence at senior levels.
• Strong analytical capability and a track record of adding value through insight and challenge.
• Experience working in a large, matrixed organisation—public or private sector.
• A strategic mindset coupled with hands-on delivery focus.
• Experience with ERP systems (Agresso/Unit4 or similar) would be beneficial.
