• Work both independently and as a collaborative team player, partnering with a solid team of marketers, product managers and more to bring shared visions to life, source assets, and hone in on the perfect story in the edit.

• Communication: You excel at explaining your work, talking through internal feedback, collaborating on ideas and proactively reaching out to stakeholders for guidance and review.
• Problem solver: You welcome innovation and risk-taking, always eager to learn new techniques and where you can be more efficient when faced with creative challenges.
