• Proven ability to engage stakeholders and present insights through data visualisation tools and storytelling.
• Experience with data modelling, warehousing, and integration.
• Interest in and awareness of AI and emerging technologies.
• Ability to thrive in an agile, fast-growing environment, managing both highly complex data and scalable solutions.
Beneficial (but not essential):
