  • Exceptional communication and presentation abilities, with confidence in pitching and nurturing client relationships.
  • A natural storyteller who can inspire teams, mentor talent, and bring out the best in collaborators.
  • Deep understanding of how creativity can shift behaviour, spark engagement, and deliver measurable impact.
