* Translate complex modelling into meaningful insight: Present modelling outputs to senior stakeholders in a way that is clear, engaging and supports confident, data-driven decisions.
* Stay tuned into a dynamic market: Monitor competitor activity, regulatory developments and industry trends to keep modelling assumptions up to date and commercially relevant
