  • Experience preparing technical reports, briefing materials, scientific communications, and stakeholder-facing deliverables, and supporting stakeholder engagement, workshop facilitation, or cross-organizational initiatives. 

  • Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
