  • A commitment to excellence, take pride in producing high-quality work with attention to detail. This is an externally facing role, where you will be an ambassador for CIC

Working with CIC

  • Willing to roll up your sleeves: you will deal with ad-hoc tasks as they emerge
  • A team player: contribute to making everyone better at what they do
  • Proactive: put your hand up and don't wait to be asked, take initiative
