  • Collaborative - you’ll have a passion and skill for building strong relationships based on trust and mutual respect.

  • Detail focused - you’ll have an eye for the details and an appreciation of data and analytics, using these two skills to drive your decisions.

  • Adaptable - you will be as comfortable working with ambiguity as you are with certainty. We need someone who can be agile enough to respond to changing priorities, but be able to hold clear on the long-term path ahead

  • Curiosity to learn, grow - we don’t expect you to be an expert, but we’ll need you to have a positive, can-do attitude - with a willingness to learn new things.
