• We’re looking for someone smart, scrappy, dependable, and willing to do whatever it takes to support business development and sales initiatives. If “That’s not my job” isn’t in your vocabulary, WE'RE INTERESTED IN YOU ALREADY!

We can train the right candidate for the technical aspects of this role. However, the “magic” we seek—"savvy" marketing outreach, initiative, adaptability, and a can-do attitude—can’t be taught.

It requires a unique individual with a multidisciplinary background and expertise in developing strong business relationships. It also requires high professionalism, confidentiality, an eagerness to learn, and business acumen. If you can concentrate on minute details while watching the big picture, you should apply for this position!
