- Own priorities independently, balancing strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.
- Build trusted relationships and turn meetings, reporting and market intelligence into decisions and actions.
- Improve pursuit quality and strengthen proactive client development.

- Strong analytical instincts and comfort working with CRM systems, dashboards, pipeline reporting and business development data.
- Ability to coach and guide Marketing Coordinators and Specialists while working collaboratively within a broader marketing team.
