To be successful in this role you will be passionate about people and enjoy working across both strategic and operational levels. You will pride yourself on your ability to ‘partner’ with the business, building and maintaining collaborative relationships, which, along with your excellent communication skills, allows you to influence key decision makers. A strategic thinker, you look to identify and develop opportunities that create value across the organisation. You will thrive working in a fast paced, complex environment and are not afraid to have ‘difficult’ conversations.
Additionally, you will have:
