Here's the kind of stuff you'll get involved in: Putting solid change management plans in place. Building strong relationships with all sorts of people across the business. Figuring out what the impact of changes will be (on people, processes, tech – the whole shebang). Making sure everyone knows what's going on, keeping them in the loop, and getting them excited about the changes. Mapping out how things work now, how they'll work in the future, and spotting where improvements can be made.

One thing I should mention here though - they are looking for advanced Excel skills, including data manipulation and visualisation.

A flexible, hybrid working setup (3 days in their London office). A generous bonus scheme. A decent holiday allowance. Private medical insurance.
