  • Drive initiatives to improve the tools and processes that optimise: production, measurement and KPI reporting, applying AI and automation where it adds value.

  • Act as the technical lead for the team, coordinating short and mid-term team and business projects.

  • Support and help elevate the team, and attend tier meetings.

What they're looking for
