For a quarter of a century, the Jellycat family have brought joy, wonder and playful fun to people of all ages, in every part of the world. Utterly original and in a class of their own, they are currently among the most loved and collected toys of their kind. How has this gentle tribe endeared themselves to so many? Perhaps it is their whimsical expressions. Or the deliciously soft fabrics. Or the beautiful way in which they sit in your hand. Whatever it is, there is something magical and unmistakeable about each one of them.

• Identifying risks, dependencies and potential roadblocks early, working collaboratively to resolve issues and escalating where appropriate.

• Continuously looking for opportunities to simplify and improve processes, tools and ways of working, increasing clarity, efficiency and agility across the product journey.
