Sales Support (Non-Closing): Make professional follow-up calls and assist with logistics/order tracking to ensure customer satisfaction.
Data Management: Maintain and organize complex spreadsheets in Excel to track business development metrics and schedules.
Calendar & Logistics: Coordinate the VP’s schedule and manage the administrative “nitty-gritty” of a busy office.

PST Alignment: Full commitment to working 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
