  • Take ownership of high-impact projects, ensuring they are delivered on time, meet or exceed quality expectations.

  • Strong process and project management skills with attention to detail, proactive, and well-organized.
  • Self-motivated and a critical thinker; adept at working both independently and collaboratively in a dispersed team environment covering multiple and varied tasks.
  • Intuitive, highly ethical, and comfortable to question and challenge the status quo.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, both verbal and written in English.
  • Experience working independently and with team members of all levels.
