Why are we looking for you?

As a communicatively skilled personality, you know how to accompany projects from A to Z and lead them to success. You understand the dynamics of a small, agile team and are used to contributing where needed. You handle administrative tasks with the same reliability and enthusiasm that you bring to managing ongoing projects.
