To be successful you will need:

• To distil and communicate complex ideas in an understandable manner assisting the business to make difficult decisions
• To manage and engage with a complex network of internal and external stakeholders (external partners, regulators, industry bodies) across different seniorities. Adapt communication style and content to appropriately address management level of the audience
