We’re recruiting for both Entry-Level and Senior Site Activation Coordinator positions. Your level will be determined based on your experience, capability, and career trajectory.

• Review documents for completeness, consistency, and accuracy
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date information across internal systems, trackers, databases, and project plans
