They are used to working with managers, colleagues and external stakeholders, and can adjust their communication style depending on the audience and urgency of the issue. The candidate is particularly strong in expense management and supplier reconciliations, and tends to approach problems by understanding the detail first before deciding on a practical next step. They have also had exposure to retail, giving them a useful ability to adapt to different operating environments, systems and stakeholder expectations. They are now looking for a contract role with meaningful project work. In their next move, work that offers more visible impact is an important consideration. They are open on industry and are primarily focused on finding the right role, manager and team culture. In interview, they present as considered and straightforward, with a preference for giving practical examples rather than overstating their experience.
