You will create a remote office in Miami, FL where you will be given access to hot desks at the local WeWork. While establishing yourself in Miami, it is expected you will be in close proximity to the DSP's LATAM offices there and you will make multiple office visits to forge relationships. You will work with a computer (monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc.) and desk phone for a good portion of your day, and you should be able to sit comfortably. Feel free to stretch your legs when you need to, we don't mind. The noise level is pretty low, unless we have some awesome music to share.
We need you to be able to talk, hear and see well enough to perform all your job tasks. You will need to use your hands and arms to complete work tasks. We may occasionally ask you to lift boxes or materials up to 25lbs. On occasions that you work outside the office, you may be exposed to unpleasant weather. If you are concerned about any of these requirements or need assistance with any of these, talk to us so we can make a reasonable accommodation for you.
