You are experienced in balancing the competing requirements of multiple stakeholders to ensure optimal outcomes are achieved for corporate strategy.


You have worked within teams in a complex technical environment in a previous role and are a measured and influential strategist with the ability to translate complex concepts for the target audience.

You are a strategic thinker and self-starter with a commercial approach to business and strong communication and stakeholder management skills, from your teammates through to the Chief Executive.
