Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate is action-oriented, organized, curious, and comfortable working in the details at a very fast pace.

They should be willing to facilitate a working session, draft the communication, update the tracker, coordinate the training, and follow up until the work is complete.
This role is not intended to be a high-level advisory or portfolio strategy position. It is a hands-on practitioner role focused on execution, coordination, and measurable adoption support.
