- Strong communication skills (verbal and written) and ability to collaborate internally and externally with a positive "can do" attitude with people every day.
- Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to work independently and find solutions autonomously.
- Experience with booking meetings/coordinating schedules and sending agendas.
- Understanding of GDPR, recruitment and HR compliance with the ability to manage sensitive and confidential information responsibly and discreetly with a high degree of trust.
- Comfortable working in evolving settings with shifting demands and able to adapt.
- Curious to learn more and make an impact as part of an exciting quantum computing scaleup.
