  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a track record of handling complex projects that require integrating multiple systems;
  • A proactive approach to process improvement, demonstrating a track record of enhancing system efficiencies and effectiveness;
  • Strong communication skills for effective collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.
