* Visualisation Skills: Proven experience building reports and dashboards using any modern visualisation tool (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, QuickSight).
* Adaptable & Agile: You thrive on variety, are comfortable switching between multiple small tasks quickly, and prefer a fast-paced environment over single, long-term projects.
