• Has a strong attention to detail, nothing passes them by
• Brings a positive attitude with them everywhere they go
• Builds rapport with ease
• Is a confident and everyday user of technology

• Ability to maintain accuracy whilst working in a busy environment and managing competing demands
• Demonstrated time management and organisational skills to effectively plan and prioritise work tasks
