- A strategic thinker who thrives on improving processes and leveraging technology to drive efficiency.
- A people-first manager who can motivate, develop, and inspire teams to deliver their best work.
- Solid experience of the taxation of life companies, together with an in depth knowledge of corporation tax.

- A collaborative influencer who can build strong relationships across finance, data, and business teams.
- A tech-savvy professional with a passion for continuous improvement and innovation in the compliance space.
