Experience with GIS mapping software, lease management systems, and relevant certifications like a Real Estate License or familiarity with FCC regulations can be beneficial. Excellent communication, organizational skills, and the ability to build strong relationships with landlords and local authorities are key soft skills. Mastering these competencies is crucial to efficiently securing suitable sites, navigating compliance requirements, and supporting the timely rollout of new infrastructure projects.
