 *  Analytical and problem-solving with great intuition and a strategic brain
 *  Motivated by supporting the development of individuals and the growth of teams
 *  Motivated by achieving goals and targets
 *  Empathy with a fundraising team’s position and perspective
 *  Respectful of the need for total discretion
 *  A trusted adviser and confidante

**Your working style:**

 *  Self-driving and proactive
 *  Comfortable working from home and often independently as well as in teams
 *  Highly organised with systematic project and time management
 *  Stimulated by working on multiple projects simultaneously
 *  Flexible and accommodating
