You take ownership of outcomes rather than processes alone, balance discipline with pragmatic problem‑solving, and are comfortable rolling your sleeves up while keeping one eye on what the business will need 12–24 months from now. You build trust quickly across technical and commercial teams and lead through accountability rather than escalation. Culture Collaborative, high‑ownership and mission‑driven. The leadership team is small, capable and pragmatic, and the operational function has clear executive backing to build the systems and discipline required for the next stage of growth. #J-18808-Ljbffr
