•    Capacità di tradurre temi tecnici in implicazioni di business per interlocutori non tecnici.
•    Inglese fluente, scritto e parlato: report e deliverable sono redatti in inglese.
•    Ottima padronanza di PowerPoint ed Excel.
•    Spiccate capacità analitiche, rigore e attitudine a lavorare con i ritmi e le scadenze tipici delle transazioni.
Costituiscono un plus
