• Strong understanding of how projects operate, including milestones, deliverables, actions, risks/issues, dependencies, governance, and stakeholder follow-up
• Strong hands-on PowerPoint and Excel skills, with experience creating presentations, trackers, status updates, and project documentation
• Strong communication and stakeholder coordination skills, with the ability to work broadly across program, business, technology, and external teams
