Ambitious and driven, you enjoy working through complex challenges and problem solving.

As a team member you’re proficient in organizing your own workload against priority and importance for the good of the team, and helping other team members to do the same. Research and data analysis are developed skills - you like to prove hypotheses or counter assumptions to ensure you have the right answer to client and team questions - but you are equally passionate about communicating the insights you find in new and creative ways. You know the details are important - whether scheduling a meeting, taking meeting notes or drafting a press release - but you appreciate the contribution of your work to the whole team’s success, and you take that responsibility seriously.
