  • Agile and adaptable. You thrive in fast-paced environments and love contributing to a mission-driven team.
  • Client-first mentality. You offer exceptional service and communicate with professionalism and discretion.
  • Detail-obsessed. You catch what others miss and keep operations running smoothly.
  • Clear communicator. You’re polished in person and on paper, with a knack for crafting professional correspondence.
  • Tech-forward. You’re comfortable navigating Microsoft Office 365, including Outlook, PowerPoint, Word, and Excel.
