- Be self-disciplined, organised and flexible – as a growing and fully remote company we are looking for someone who is excited about being in an entrepreneurial environment.
- Be eager to actively help develop the business and our offering.
- Be passionate about delivering great insights and having a genuine impact.
- Excellent interpersonal and networking skills to build great relationships with prospective clients.
- Be self-motivated, reliable and comfortable with working remotely.
