• Be the connective tissue across teams and functions, aligning stakeholders, harmonizing objectives, and driving progress; this role is extremely cross-functional
• Be a leader who can see around corners, foresee roadblocks, and proactively propose solutions to overcome them - with minimal guidance
• Be dynamic, resourceful, and willing to advocate for your projects internally and externally - influencing without authority will be critical to success
