demonstrate a willingness to roll your sleeves up and get stuck
into whatever lands on your desk. As well as first class
communication and organisational skills, the ability to project
manage and work autonomously are vital. This is a varied and
challenging role and the right candidate will need a hands-on
approach, be able to keep to deadlines and think clearly under
pressure.
