• Strong analytical skills with a history of developing and executing successful strategies.
• Excellent communication skills, able to build relationships with colleagues and external partners at all levels.
• Passionate about working collaboratively in a fast-paced environment, with a strong focus on team success.

• A proactive and innovative mindset, always looking for new ways to optimise and grow subscription services.

We offer a range of well-being initiatives, including private medical insurance, excellent parental leave, a working globally policy, mental health support, assistance programs, and social gatherings. We also provide a pension scheme and various other benefit schemes. Plus, we all get our birthdays off work and enjoy 25 days of holiday per year, as well as the opportunity to buy 5 additional days per year and you can be flexible about when you use your public holidays.

We’ve also got you covered with life assurance and exclusive perks like the Star card and our Step Further Awards (our employee recognition program) to recognise your dedication.
