A FEW THINGS WE THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW…
Before we jump into the job duties, we want to be clear: we understand that some responsibilities will require training. This line of work is different from what most people are used to, and that’s exactly why we’re looking for someone with a unique skill set—someone we can help shape and train for this role.
