  • Stakeholder Engagement & Facilitation: Strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to drive alignment and resolve dependencies across teams.
  • UX/UI Understanding: Deep knowledge of UX/UI principles and how they connect to broader service flows and back-end systems.
  • Research & Analytics: Expertise in research methods and data analysis to drive evidence-based decision-making.
  • Agile Delivery: Familiarity with Agile methodologies, including roadmap development, backlog prioritisation, and iterative development.
