WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

This role on the human side — we’re looking for someone who can:

• Roll with the punches. Every day is going to be different. If you thrive on change and can pivot quickly to refocus, let’s talk.
• Bring strong communication and writing skills. The role involves wearing many hats but at the core is a focus on shaping and writing best-in-class content materials. Demonstrated ability to communicate across departments and levels will be key.

• Be a sponge. This is an incredible opportunity to learn more about our business, the industry, and how we solve challenges. You’ll be exposed to a lot of different thinking because winning business requires us to constantly bring our A+ game. Our work is constantly evolving, which necessitates a thirst for being self-motivated to continually learn and stay ahead of the curve.
• Think strategically and be able to execute — fast. We’ll make sure you never feel unprepared, but we also want you to be able to think on your own – that critical and strategic thinking lens to understand and ask “why” is paramount; then know what it takes to get something done and do it. We’re a small, nimble team and lots can happen fast.
