4. Proactive Support: Collect and report information to support the Technology function, helping senior managers manage technology information, risks, issues, and changes.
5. Continuous Improvement: Identify areas for improvement within the Technology function, develop action plans, and help implement enhancements.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

1. Good analytical skills with experience working with data and reporting. Experience with ServiceNow SPM, PowerBI and Excel would be beneficial.
2. Enthusiasm for learning new technologies and staying updated on the solutions new technologies can bring.
3. Proactive and detail-oriented with the ability to switch between big-picture thinking and detailed work.

What's in it for you?
