* You’ll be super-analytical, a ‘whizz’ with data and numbers and be able to use this to influence, challenge and support commercial decisions and spot new business opportunities
* You’ll be a great communicator; enjoying collaborating cross-functionally and with all levels just as much as you enjoy a good colour-coded spreadsheet
* Comfortable building relationships with stakeholders across the business, and confident challenging when required
