Summary of the role

This is an exciting opportunity to shape and lead the way we provide services to our staff in a new shared services operating model “PS Connect”, created to be leading edge and transform the way Professional Services delivers its core services.

The role holder will be skilled and experienced at presenting information in a way that is easy for users to navigate and understand, resulting in an excellent user experience. Therefore, you'll enjoy this creative focus.

And of course, you'll be a wordsmith; at ease drafting effective and succinct communication, or distilling complicated content into unambiguous messaging that help us to connect with our stakeholders.
