  • Demonstrated proficiency with project management tools (e.g., Jira, ClickUp, Asana, or MS Project) and standard productivity tools (e.g., Excel, PowerPoint, Visio).
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and clientfacing skills, with the ability to translate technical topics into business language.
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and problemsolving skills, with a track record of driving issues to resolution.
