Also vital to the role are strong organizational skills, tenacity, and the ability to proactively problem solve and seek solutions.

We are a lean but passionate group, with a strong sense of work-life balance and humor, primarily based in the NYC area. Our team has been working remotely since the onset of the pandemic, so for the time being this position would be remote. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds/experiences, who possess the qualities described here. We are prioritizing NYC-area based candidates, but will consider strong candidates based remotely / in the Midwest. |
