- Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to liaise and work effectively with colleagues
- The ability to prioritise and be adaptable when things can change as well as managing your day to day workload
- Showing initiative where necessary, whilst continuing to adhere to our working policies
- Confidence to build relationships with a wide variety of people and teams
- Experience in diagnosing and solving problems
