• Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working under tight deadlines.

• Experience working with multiple stakeholders in demanding client environments.
• Skilled in leading workshops, developing benefits cases, phasing strategies, and resource plans.
• Exposure to one or more of the following industries: Consumer Products, Retail, Foodservice, Distribution, Automotive.
