    • Utilise your experience, knowledge and passion for learning to introduce innovative approaches and creative solutions within your role, team and beyond. Be flexible in adapting to new challenges and opportunities as they arise.
    • Cultivate positive working relationships within both your immediate team and the wider organisation, embracing diversity and fostering an inclusive environment of mutual respect and kindness. Demonstrate self-awareness and proactivity in reducing the impact of your work on the environment.
    • Act with integrity and uphold high standards of professional behaviour and delivery in all aspects of your work. Pay attention to detail that contributes to a positive customer experience and satisfaction.
