• Four-year university/college degree preferred.

• Proven experience participating in a complex project from start to finish.

• Knowing when to problem solve, either independently or by asking smart questions of your teammates.

• Outstanding written and oral communication skills - you’ll often be writing materials that will go directly to our clients and will need to adjust internal jargon for external.
