- Utilize Jira and Smartsheet to facilitate project planning, task management, team collaboration, and visibility across stakeholders.
- Serve as a liaison between business and technical teams, translating project requirements and ensuring effective communication throughout the project lifecycle.
- Leverage knowledge of Drupal content management processes to support website governance, content workflows, and project execution.
