• Comfortable interacting with the public every day.
• Willingness to learn, take direction, and grow through coaching.

This is a people‑focused job where your day is spent talking with the public, working toward clear goals, and being supported through training, coaching, and leadership development. It’s probably not the right fit if you’re looking for a behind‑the‑scenes role or you’re uncomfortable starting conversations with new people every day.

“A lot of my coworkers have become really close friends to me & I wouldn’t have met them if I didn’t work at PO. I also love that I get to invest in people and watch them grow, while challenging myself to learn & grow as well!”
