* Hands-on experience producing:

o Slide decks
o Campaign-style communications for internal stakeholders
* Practical ability with visual and graphic design tools (e.g. PowerPoint, Canva, Adobe tools or similar) to create simple, clean, on-brand visuals.
* Experience working with multiple stakeholder groups and managing input, reviews, and approvals.
* Strong organisation and planning skills, comfortable managing a steady pipeline of content and deadlines.

Desirable
* Experience in telecoms, IT, or digital transformation environments.
* Familiarity with ServiceNow or similar enterprise platforms (ITSM, CSM, HR, etc.) from a communications perspective.
