  • You have experience planning and leading projects from end to end, driving delivery and keeping work on track.

  • You’re comfortable building relationships with senior stakeholders and presenting to senior forums.
  • You’re comfortable working independently and adapting to changing priorities, focusing quickly on higher-risk areas when needed.
  • You enjoy building and improving ways of working - spotting gaps, bringing structure and creating more effective, reliable processes.
