What kind of person will succeed in this team?

We’re looking for you to be really proactive in your approach. Where you can make the most difference will be around identifying ways to pipeline and talent pool for those hard to fill areas.

Lastly, an eye for continuous improvement will really help us as a team as we embed our new processes.
