Coordinate seamlessly within the team, discussing issues comfortably, clearly, and concisely. Display openness towards constant improvements, applying skills and knowledge to drive better outcomes for projects and teams. • Strong Technical Acumen: Defend and articulate views effectively, consider relevant HR and organisational development data points, and suggest alternative metrics for project success. • Strategic Thinking: Understand broader developments and the operating context well. Consider longer-term implications of relevant policy developments and integrate them effectively into considerations. • Stakeholder Management: Manage stakeholders well in most instances, displaying initiative and a track record of making things happen. Seek occasional assistance in navigating complex situations. • Problem Diagnosis and Solution: Diagnose problems with today's systems, provide clear problem statements, and actualize ideas to address them. Qualifications: • Bachelor's degree or equivalent in relevant field(s) (e.g., Engineering, Management, Computer Science, Business Management). • Proven experience in project management, workforce development, or related roles. • Keen interest in the technology space
