• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams such as HR, Finance, Legal, and Operations to support strategic and administrative priorities.
• Track deliverables, action items, and deadlines to ensure consistent and timely follow‑up on key initiatives.

Strategic and Project Support

• Strong organizational, communication, and multitasking skills with attention to detail.
