• Able to collaborate and communicate effectively with cross-functional partners, and also cater solutions to stakeholders 
• Comfortable operating in an unstructured and fast-paced environment

Here is what is needed:

• Experience collaborating and communicating effectively with cross-functional partners
• Comfort operating in a dynamic and fast-paced environment
