- Be proficient in excel modelling/data manipulation and hold the ability to distil complex financial information and data into simple and clear messaging for the business leaders. As a result good use of management reporting tools (eg Microsoft PowerPoint) will be key
- A people person with excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to partner with the business across all functions and levels. Business Partnering is critical to the role and therefore the successful candidate will have the ability to exhibit this on a regular basis
- It will be key for the successful candidate to possess a passion for people development and invest the necessary time to develop the skills and experience of more junior members of the team
- The role will provide an opportunity to gain great exposure to both the Finance Senior Leadership team and the broader BDUK leadership team. The insight it provides into the broader business will ensure an ambitious individual can build a great career at Boeing.
