  • Education: Recent college graduate (up to one year post-graduation).
  • Commitment: Ability to commit to a structured, immersive one-year program.
  • Drive: An outgoing, personable attitude with a clear goal of pursuing field operations management rather than finance or data analytics.
  • Physical Capability: Willingness to work in a highly physical role in both indoor and outdoor settings.
  • Flexibility: Adaptable to changing schedules, including early mornings, nights, and occasional weekend rotations.
  • Skills: Strong people skills, verbal communication, and a safety-first mindset.
