  • Act as a point of contact for day-to-day communications with external providers, escalating issues to senior team members as needed.

  • Help collect and organize performance data for reporting and analysis, assisting in identifying trends or potential improvements.

  • Participate in the development of business cases or pilot proposals by gathering data, stakeholder input, and supporting materials.

  • Participate in process improvement discussions to suggest and help test workflow enhancements.
