Required Background:

- Language skills: Communicate fluently in both French and English, confidently interacting with internal teams and external partners in an international context.
- Personal qualities: Exhibit a high level of rigor and organizational skills to ensure standards and best practices are met, with a keen sense of autonomy and initiative in driving project objectives.
