You'll also have:
• A recent tertiary qualification in Business, Commerce, Operations Management, Supply Chain, Engineering, Construction Management, or a related discipline. 
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills. 
• An analytical mindset and the ability to solve problems. 
• Strong learning agility and curiosity. 
• Initiative and a willingness to take ownership. 
• Resilience, adaptability, and a positive attitude.
