advertisement
Person specification
Essential:
 Be able to react flexibly and respond quickly to emerging
priorities, whilst ensuring stakeholders are engaged, and
ongoing projects remain on track.

A self-starter with strong organisational skills and good
stakeholder management experience.

The ability to analyse and interpret policies, regulations, data
and trends to provide insights and recommendations.

Administrative experience such as monitoring team mailboxes,
organising meetings and sending agendas.
Reacting flexibly and responding promptly to emerging priorities is a strength I honed during an
intensive research project on the economics of protests in two countries. Facing tight deadlines, I
collected and analysed diverse data using Excel. I organised information efficiently and presented
compelling insights, a skill crucial for handling ongoing projects. I also engaged with peers to
corroborate my research ahead of a symposium which reflects my ability to engage stakeholders
effectively.
As a self-starter, I showcased strong organisational skills and stakeholder management in my role as a
Host and Marshal. I managed diverse tasks at events, showcasing my ability to prioritise amidst
dynamic environments. Coordinating crowd control at events, overseeing logistical aspects, and
addressing challenges illustrated my versatility. Additionally, I successfully handled competing
priorities during peak attendance and anticipated issues proactively, ensuring seamless experiences.
Throughout my academic journey, I actively participated in NMUN, a prestigious event that
demanded impeccable policy skills. In this role, I conducted extensive research, conducted intricate
analyses of international issues, and precisely articulated Kuwait's stance in our Position Papers. I
ensured that our speeches and proposals were thoroughly reasoned, supported by compelling
arguments, and aligned with Kuwait's strategic goals and international commitments.
As a sales associate, I handled the team’s mailbox, organised meetings internally including with
senior managers and also put together agenda for corporate meetings.
Lastly, my communication skills as a Sales Associate, where I balanced customer needs with store
objectives, emphasise my ability to convey insights and recommendations effectively.
