Your qualifications
As a person, you are characterized by your supportive and service minded attitude, and your structured, detail-oriented and organized approach. You know how to structure your time and resources to deliver your tasks on time, and you take pride in meeting deadlines. You thrive in an administrative role, where your coordinator skills and detail orientation are cherished and of great importance. With your adaptability you both enjoy routine work but also being presented with new and unknown tasks, and finding your ways in how to handle these.
You are proactive by nature and with your great interpersonal skills, you easily collaborate with colleagues across the organization and various project teams.
