• Strong stakeholder engagement and facilitation skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.
• A self-starter mindset with comfort navigating ambiguity and driving clarity.
• Practical knowledge of project management methodologies (AgilePM, Prince2) and tools (Smartsheet, Excel, PowerPoint).
• Familiarity with business change techniques (e.g., BPMN, SIPOC) and a bonus if you know Power BI or Excel macros.

What You’ll Get
