Job Description:

This position requires someone outgoing and friendly who can interact with a wide range of people. This person must be caring and sympathetic, with a genuine interest in others. They will be able to put other people's interest before their own.

The work requires patience, stability, and consistency, with plenty of social interaction for long periods of time. As a result, it may also require working in one space, or with one group of people, for most of the day.

The work is relatively unstructured, with freedom from rigid rules and boundaries. Someone in this role must be informal, influential, and warm in how they communicate. Their work environment will be relatively free from competitive pressures.

Although the requirements of the position are relatively unstructured, they suit a person who responds positively to the security of stability and familiarity. The role would benefit from someone whose approach to work is steady, methodical, and thoughtful, especially when under pressure. Team interaction and involvement is especially important, and there's a strong requirement for collaboration and building rapport with others.

*We are committed to creating a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace where individuals of all backgrounds, cultures, races, genders, and identities are welcomed and valued. We strongly encourage individuals from underrepresented groups, including but not limited to people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, women, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and interns, to apply.*
