    • A University Degree in Commerce, Finance, Economics, or a related analytical field.
    • 1–3 years of experience in Revenue Management, Commercial Finance, or Data Analytics.
    • Advanced proficiency in MS Excel and PowerPoint (you should be a "wizard" with pivot tables and data visualization). Prior experience with SAP is required.
    • High level of agility—ready to pivot as priorities shift.
