- A solution-focused mindset, with the ability to review existing processes and suggest practical improvements.
- Experience of supporting or contributing to the successful delivery of projects.
- Good written and spoken English, together with the numeracy skills required for the role.
- The ability and willingness to work within, and be sympathetic to, the Christian ethos and values of The Salvation Army.
