  • Build and maintain a network of contacts both internal and external with the ability to influence.
  • Leadership skills, promoting a strong sense of teamwork and training hourly colleagues.
  • Experience working in a complex and fast-paced environment.
  • Share ideas and findings in a clear direct way both internally and externally.
  • Ability to use data to drive intelligent decision making and influence future seasons.
