• Exceptional organizational skills, able to juggle multiple priorities.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, Concur, SharePoint, and Workday—and quick to pick up new tools.
• Self‑directed, with sound judgment and strong decision‑making skills.
• Professional, personable, and highly discreet.
• Flexible and adaptable, including occasional after‑hours availability.
