• You can independently drive improvement projects and deliver results within defined timelines

As a person, you are proactive and a good communicator. You possess a natural urge to constantly optimize our assets data and drive change processes.

Finally, you find it natural and interesting to coordinate with teams of different nationalities and ensure the timely involvement of relevant stakeholders.
