• Effective project management and strong organizational skills with a high level of attention to detail
• Experience with cloud-based technology platforms including Microsoft Suite and Salesforce (or other CRM) an asset
• Experience in a sales organization with internal clients and a desire to pursue a career in sales, account management, or pursuit management is preferred
• Interest in AI and technology trends, and openness to learning new tools and adapting how you work
• A demonstrated commitment to valuing differences and working alongside diverse people and perspectives
