Qualifications: - 3-5 years of project coordination, project management, or related experience, ideally within a technology company, Professional Services organization, or relevant consultancy. - Experience coordinating multiple projects, schedules, timelines, resources, and competing priorities. - Experience working with a Professional Services Automation tool is a plus;
