About you:
You are extremely organised and have skill in juggling multiple tasks, whilst at the same time ensuring impeccable attention to detail. You are meticulous.
You’re proactive and see what needs to be done, whilst also being flexible and skilled at working in a reactive manner.
You enjoy spending time with people and being part of a team. You instill trust with everyone you interact with, and can be counted on to be reliable and helpful.
