- Organised and adaptable, able to own multiple priorities in a small, fast-moving organisation
- Technically capable, making data systems like Salesforce easily integrated into their workflow
- Distinctly motivated and/or experienced in social impact, education, democracy or civic participation
Please note the pay scale of this role is determined by the demonststrable strategic seniority the person brings in managing others and organisational outcomes alongside technical role skills above.
