  • Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to proactively identify gaps and drive solutions
  • Experience managing timelines, deliverables, and cross-functional coordination
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently while keeping stakeholders aligned and informed
  • Strong attention to detail, with a keen eye for color, texture, and material quality

Preferred Qualifications:
