  • Ability to synthesize information quickly and learn new skills, view problems, apply a variety of analytical solutions, and lead client-facing discussions and meetings.
  • Ability to work in teams to produce high-impact work products, reports, and other deliverables in a fast-paced environment.
  • Ability to work independently or with limited supervision.
  • Willingness to utilize project management best practices within an organization to produce high quality deliverables in a timely manner.
