• Mentor junior administrators or analysts on tools and processes.
• Support light technical maintenance (log reviews, troubleshooting connectors, scripting repetitive tasks).
• Proactively assess risks and propose technical or procedural improvements in coordination with cybersecurity teams.

• Excellent communication skills for engaging with business, security, and IT stakeholders.
• Collaborative, adaptable, and process-improvement oriented.
