Collaboration experience in working groups or projects is also valued, as is the ability to brief management on complex research and analysis results, both verbally and in writing.

Strong analytical skills are required to assess multi-dimensional problems and audit issues. Proficiency in the MS Office Suite (Excel and Word) is necessary.
