About You
You are a highly organised and motivated professional with strong analytical, numerical, and communication skills. Comfortable working in a fast-paced, commercial environment, you manage multiple projects with accuracy and attention to detail while keeping results at the forefront.

Experience with Jira, Google Tag Manager, personalisation platforms such as Monetate, and an awareness of online marketing channels would be an advantage, as would knowledge of the travel and tourism sector. Above all, you are proactive, ambitious, and ready to take ownership of delivering measurable results.
