You'll be organised with strong communication skills in order to build effective relationships with both stakeholders and colleagues. You will ensure that we always get the best result in a timely manner. You'll have a good understanding of budgets and financial data in order to do the role effectively. You will ensure we can account for where our customers money is going as if you don't our customers certainly will. You have great Customer Service skills to support your customers. They rely on you to be knowledgeable, helpful and ensure their enquiry is dealt with accurately and timely. You will have a sound knowledge of Microsoft packages, especially Excel, in order to manipulate data. With your own area of around 1,000 to support you will have the ability to multitask, prioritise and work under pressure. You'll spend time travelling regionally to visit your patch, and occasionally for team meetings. It's important to us that you are mobile and have access to a vehicle insured for business purposes.
