  • Running data analysis, reports, and supporting ad‑hoc project tasks
  • Building strong relationships across the project team and wider stakeholders
  • Keeping accurate and secure records, always ensuring confidentiality

  • Ability to build rapport at all levels, quickly and effectively
  • Excellent IT skills (Microsoft Office & SharePoint)
