• Coordinate logistics and follow-ups for routine stakeholder meetings with internal teams and external partners such as Pismo, Thales, and Mastercard

• Strong organisational skills and comfort handling high volumes of partner-driven changes, balancing urgency with the discipline to introduce structure over time
