  • Build your network across Phoenix and develop relationships with Senior Leadership.
  • Learn to think strategically to assess how business units and functions are working together and contributing to the Group Strategy.

And finally, you will be part of a truly collaborative, high performing and diverse team where people development is at the heart of what we do. We really want everyone to thrive and succeed.
