• Confident problem solver and effective decision maker, able to take charge of a project and use initiative to manage expectations as well as priorities
• Excellent planning and organisational skills with the ability to proactively seek out potential eventualities and plan ahead to mitigate these
• Comfortable to become the champion and go-to expert in your particular area
• Able to remain focussed, calm, and agile in the face of a challenge
