  • Expanding analytical skills and measurement approaches
  • Leading multiple projects within a work stream or portfolio of books
  • Stakeholder management and ability to translate requirements into tasks
  • Ideal but not essential knowledge of optimisation tools such as Pacvue, Helium 10 and Datahawk.
