• Partner with stakeholders to support communications, including scheduling sends, maintaining distribution lists, and ensuring calendars are up to date
• Identify opportunities to streamline workflows and apply automation (including AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini) to improve efficiency over time

We’re excited about you because…

• You have 3+ years of experience in program management, operations, or a related field
• You have experience supporting cross-functional projects and keeping detailed workstreams organized and on track
