The candidate should have good written and spoken English, strong organisational skills and a responsible approach towards work.

The candidate should have an independent and solution-oriented mindset. While guidance can always be sought where genuinely required, the candidate should first understand the issue, apply her own mind and make a reasonable effort to find a solution rather than seeking instructions at every stage or for every minor issue.

The role requires ownership, initiative, willingness to learn new things and a growth-oriented approach towards work and professional development.
