• Ensure optimal use of complementary data, involving close collaboration with Research & Analytics, where appropriate.
• When appropriate, collaborate with the PEI Events team, and moderate discussions at events hosted by the Company.

About You Requirements:

• Self-motivated and willing to take responsibility.
• A team player, recognising the need to collaborate to deliver on the product’s mission.
• Comfortable receiving and acting on regular feedback.
