• Can jump between different tasks without getting overwhelmed.
• Picks things up quickly and enjoys learning new things.
• Has a commercial mindset and likes the idea of helping a business grow.

Basically, if you're someone who likes variety, responsibility and getting stuck into whatever needs doing, we'd like to hear from you.
