  • A multi-tasking ninja - we expect you to juggle 50 different tasks at once without dropping the ball (we're not kidding)
  • A whiz with Microsoft Excel (we're talking VLOOKUP and pivot tables, not SUM and AVERAGE - and we will test your capabilities)
  • Tech savvy and ability to use various IT and cloud-based tools to improve efficiency and productivity
  • Ready to challenge, be challenged, and work within our highly disruptive business model
