  • Your good initiative and attention to detail will make you an asset to the team, helping you to identify problems before they arise and find effective solutions.
  • Interpersonal skills are also important, as you will be working closely with a wide range of people, including employees and visitors.

Above all, you will have a proactive attitude and be eager to take on new challenges, essential qualities that will enable you to deliver to the highest standards every day.
