• A 2:1 degree or above in a numerate or analytical discipline (e.g., Business, Economics, Finance, STEM), or equivalent demonstrable analytical capability.
• Strong numerical and analytical skills with attention to detail.
• Confidence working with data in Excel (and an interest in learning tools such as Power BI, Apptio).

• A collaborative mindset and willingness to work with technology, finance, and business stakeholders.
• An interest in cloud, technology cost management, or how organisations measure technology value.
• An awareness of Azure/AWS cost concepts, dashboards, SQL, or basic scripting is a nice to have but not essential.
