· Organize and manage meetings, events, offsites, and team-based programmatic events.
· Coordinate domestic and international travel in compliance with existing policies and procedures, ensuring effective use of time and resources, for the leadership team.
· Support annual operational planning process, business planning, and performance review cycles.
· Track and help drive completion of key deliverables and follow up on outstanding items.
