  • Extremely organized. You thrive on tight project management. You know exactly what is on track, what is not, and what we are doing next.

  • Experience working in fastgrowing environments. You are comfortable with managing multiple projects at once and with adjusting the strategy over time.

  • Market knowledge. You understand event landscapes, venues, and community dynamics that will help Clay succeed in key markets.
