The position has three key components: providing executive support, principal and head of our company’s botany group, and her team (primary duty), assisting the health and safety coordinator with health and safety activities, and contributing to business management team operations and special projects.
The successful candidate has a proactive approach to seeking out information needed both within the company and externally to drive projects to completion.
