- You will be able to demonstrate a breadth of organisational understanding across a range of functional areas, especially in Engineering. You are likely to have led or project managed substantial engineering work packages that have involved you making complex
trade-off decisions between Quality, Cost and Delivery. Your skills in this area may be
based on an Engineering or Technical degree.
- You will have strong finance and commercial skills and are likely to be able to share

- You will have strong leadership, diplomacy, interpersonal relationship, and people management skills. You will be able to share the techniques and approaches that you have used in a range of collaborative and adversarial situations, both in individual and team environments and with external parties to deliver results.
- You will have strong finance and commercial skills and are likely to be able to share multiple examples of substantial commercial negotiations or disputes that you have played a central role in.
- You will be adept at balancing competing interests (financial, human relationships and organisational interests) and will be able to share examples of where you have needed to process large amounts of inputs and data to choose which to focus on to deliver a successful outcome.
- You are likely to be able to share a Project Management skills assessment (e.g., Association of Project Management) that you have completed recently which provides a quantified assessment of your experience in the areas listed above.

We’re an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives.

And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
