• Good interpersonal and communication skills, with a service-oriented and approachable mindset

• Proficiency in digital tools, including the practical use of AI

• Confidence using Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook), and an interest in learning new HR and digital tools

• A proactive mindset and the ability to work effectively in a changing, fast-paced environment
