Proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, Outlook), and the ability to build competency in external and internal research software as needed.
Ability to take initiative and maintain a thoughtful approach in a dynamic work environment.
Must be able to stand and sit for extended periods of time and lift up to 30 lbs. Must be able to work repetitive tasks in a warm, humid greenhouse environment with pollen present year-round.

Hours:
