• High level of resilience, self-motivation, and a proven track record of working independently to exceed goals.
• Exceptional communication, negotiation, and presentation skills—both written and verbal.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite and familiarity with online presentation platforms (e.g., Zoom, MS Teams).
