Your Responsibilities
• You’ll answer incoming calls and warmly greet visitors, helping create a polished and welcoming experience.

• You’ll coordinate dates with the sales team, send communications and manage marketing materials through HubSpot.
• You’ll schedule meetings and provide calendar support to Portfolio Managers.
