- Reporting data both internally and externally;

The successful candidate needs an eye for detail and the ability to follow processes and to think logically. You will need to be able to work both independently and as part of a team and will also have the support of a Data Administrator. An ability to already use SIMS (our current MIS system) would be an advantage but we will provide training for the right candidate.
