Other Responsibilities

• You may support pre-sales teams by summarizing quotes or preparing presentations.
• You will assist with budgets and financial forecasts, reviewing operational costs and trends.
• You will handle record keeping, asset and inventory management, and logistics.
• You will contribute to reports, project updates, meeting minutes, capacity reports, and presentations.
