Empathetic. As SM+K’s culture is people-first, a deep understanding of, concern for, and interest in your fellow humans is central to your approach.
Intellectually curious. You draw inspiration from myriad sources. Never knowing where your next, big idea is coming from, you enjoy learning for learning’s sake.
An optimistic skeptic. Evidence rules. Before taking a position you weigh pros and cons, consider sources of information, and look for a data-based recommendation.
A systems thinker with a knack for building bridges, creating efficiencies, and finding synergies between people across disciplines, offices, and other disparate groups
Adaptable. Being part of a small, hat-switching team does not overwhelm you. It excites you to be able to get a wide breadth of experience across several Talent-based disciplines.
Entrepreneurial. Not only do you take personal pride in delivering exceptional work to internal clients, you do so with business objectives front-of-mind.
