• A creative problem solver who can bring multiple perspectives together, balancing organizational and community priorities to create outcomes that go well beyond the sum of their parts
• Effective in project management and administration; you have an understanding of project management fundamentals and are able to effectively maintain timelines and tasks based on business needs
• Adaptable and flexible, you are motivated to drive results in a fast-paced environment where change is a constant, and can meet deadlines with a strong sense of urgency and adaptability
• Able to develop, maintain, and strengthen partnerships with others inside or outside the organization, you possess a fantastic can-do attitude (“no” isn’t in your vocabulary) and are able to adapt skills to wherever you can best contribute to the team
• You operate and live by our core values, the HelloFresh DNA: Speed & Agility, Ruthless Prioritization, Egoless Environment, Learning Never Stops (especially this one!), and Data-Drivenness
