Willingness to learn and take direction from senior finance team members
What We Value
Collaboration and Teamwork: Successful outcomes are never achieved alone.
You need to work well with others and be accountable for your work.
We also expect you to communicate often, be honest and take initiative when appropriate.
You will be working openly using modern collaborative platforms.
Passion for Learning: You need to love what you do.
We expect you to always be motivated, challenge yourself and continuously learn without having to push you into it.
This will include learning things outside your area of expertise and making others around you better.
Talent and Courage: We aim to produce great outcomes.
When solving problems, we expect creativity and a focus on the end user.
We want you to have tough conversations if things are not right and the courage to ask when you don't know.
