You should have a proven track record in setting project plans, engaging stakeholders, managing evolving timelines, and ensuring accuracy and completeness of reporting. Strong interpersonal skills, collaborative and clear communication, excellent critical thinking and analytical skills, and the ability to present metrics, explain findings, and articulate issues and challenges together with proposed solutions are also required.
