• Collaborate with internal and external teams to embed accessibility in product development
• Test accessibility of digital documents, including Word, PowerPoint, and PDF
• Help the team in growing accessibility awareness around the importance of manual testing

• Practical experience conducting audits and managing issue remediation
• Working knowledge of HTML and accessibility-related code fixes
• Confident using assistive technology to perform audits
