- Strong people leadership with the ability to coach, motivate, and enforce accountability.
- Proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with the ability to anticipate issues before they escalate.
- Demonstrated ability to design, implement, and refine operational systems.
- Strong organisational and time management skills, with commercial acumen.
- Confident communicator able to influence and engage staff, directors, and external partners.
