  • Enjoy following process and working at pace
  • Excel in a varied environment
  • Enjoy working as part of a team, promoting a collaborative team dynamic
  • Communicate and listen effectively
  • Are comfortable learning about and using new technology, including handheld mobile devices to support processing online orders
