• A master’s degree in finance or accounting
• Proven experience leading small teams in data-driven and financial environments
• Experience of data enrichment, including the use of PowerBI, and awareness of coding languages such as SQL or Pythin
• Experience collaborating with IT teams, with the ability to engage with technical terminology, i.e. MoSCoW prioritisation, agile methodologies or sprint planning
• A genuine interest in learning about a range of sustainability topics such as reporting frameworks, climate policy, decarbonisation, human rights, water & waste management and emissions management
• Previous experience with sustainability reporting frameworks is not essential, but would be a ‘nice to have’
