Strong digital confidence and proven experience working across cloud-based operational systems (such as Google Workspace, HR platforms and similar tools). Outstanding organisational skills and the ability to juggle a varied workload, prioritise effectively and follow through on commitments. Excellent written and verbal communication skills - you can explain processes clearly to non-expert colleagues and represent the organisation confidently with external partners.
