· Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

· Experience with Excel, cloud-based project management systems, and tracking tools.

· Familiarity with Asana, Studio Designer, or Smartsheet is a plus.

· Strong vendor coordination, follow-through, and problem-solving abilities.

· Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

· Comfortable managing detailed operational work while keeping the bigger picture in mind.

· Ability to work independently, take initiative, and follow through on commitments.
