• Work confidently and independently in a remote environment
• Bring ideas, questions and curiosity to team meetings

Solve problems and think ahead

• Troubleshoot issues before escalating
• Apply strong numeracy skills to stock, cost and margin calculations
• Improve processes and contribute to continuous improvement projects

What My Client Is Looking For

Essential Skills & Behaviours

• Experience with Xero accounting software
