  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into business outcomes.
  • Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and work effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Degree, relevant professional qualification, or equivalent practical experience.

Desirable

  • Experience within local government or the wider public sector.
  • Knowledge of cross-government procurement frameworks.
