• Must be proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
• Must have excellent typing skills.
• Must have excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Must be detailed orientated, well organized, and skilled in the arts of multi-tasking, follow‑up, and adherence to firm deadlines.
• Must be able to function equally well on an independent basis and as part of a team.
