  • Strong Excel / Google Sheets skills, including trackers, Pivot Tables, and conditional formatting
  • Excellent written and verbal English communication
  • Strong documentation and organizational skills
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously
  • Proactive approach to follow-up and problem-solving

Nice to Have
