Description
Do you thrive under pressure? Are you a master at keeping a dozen balls in the air at once? Do you have an impatient streak - a need to get things checked off and move forward? Can you work independently within a structured framework while still defining how things get done? Are you looking for the next big challenge in your career? If you're in or around Birmingham, we have the opportunity for you.
