● a commercial mind-set and experience in a managerial role
● a true customer focus and a real passion for delivering a great service
● the ability to capture intricate detail and make sure it is reflected in the service we deliver
● compassion, understanding and empathy, and the ability to keep a cool head under pressure
● a UK manual driving licence
