    • Own a very dynamic calendar. Manage heavy volume of meetings across time zones. Book, rebook and cancel meetings as priorities change. Communicate changes.
    • Use AI and automation to increase leverage. Apply tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others to draft communications, summarize information, create checklists, and streamline scheduling workflows.

    • Exceptional organizational, communication, and synthesis skills. You notice small details that prevent big problems. You handle sensitive information with confidentiality and professionalism. You communicate clearly and succinctly in writing and verbally.
    • Ability to connect dots across teams, anticipate risks, and proactively solve problems.
    • Calm, adaptable, and effective amid shifting priorities.
    • Passion for the outdoors and alignment with Backcountry's customer-first, expert-led mission is a plus.
