Help foster a positive, high‑performing team culture by coaching junior team members, sharing knowledge generously and encouraging continuous improvement in processes and stakeholder engagement.

Strong planning, analytical, modelling and reporting skills, with the ability to turn complex data into clear insights that help others make informed decisions.
