- From your experience you will be able to demonstrate a strong business sense and understanding of drivers of growth and commercial performance
- You will be able to show examples of tackling loosely defined problems, working independently to shape your own perspective of a solution and deliver results accordingly.
- You can bring a business perspective to a rather technical environment, and navigate well in a cross-functional setting, with the roles and interests of multiple stakeholders in mind.
- You act proactively when required and drive your work autonomously, while also supporting others around you that can benefit from your expertise.
- You have the ability to effectively work with others and build on their knowledge to bring the work to the next level, and you’re able to coordinate and lead collaborative efforts as well as effectively run meetings.
- It’s likely you have a BSc (or an MSc) in Engineering, Business or similar.
