- Serve as an impartial sounding board for the CEO, providing candid feedback on organizational health and culture.
Requirements & Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, Computer Science, or a related field. An MBA or Master’s in Industrial-Organizational Psychology is a significant advantage.

- Advanced data analysis and financial modeling skills; ability to derive insights from multi-source data.
