  • Strong organizational skills, flexibility, and curiosity
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to respectfully interact with co-workers at all levels in a professional environment

  • Ability to work independently or as part of a team and without direct supervision
  • A methodically consistent approach to repetitive tasks; values accuracy and acute attention to detail
  • Bachelor's degree 6.2 or relevant industry experience
