  • Track meetings, deliverables, and follow ups to ensure seamless execution and preparedness.

Meetings & Events

  • Coordinate complex internal and external meetings involving multiple stakeholders.
  • Prepare agendas, briefing materials, and supporting documents.
  • Assist with senior leadership meetings, events, and occasional off sites.
  • Serve as a polished liaison for clients, investors, and senior stakeholders.

Travel & Logistics

  • Arrange detailed domestic and international travel itineraries.
  • Prepare agendas, directions, confirmations, and backup materials.
  • Anticipate potential conflicts or changes and communicate updates promptly.

Administrative Operations

  • Prepare accurate and timely expense reports.
  • Handle routine administrative tasks including mail, printing, scanning, and organizing documents.
  • Provide backup support to additional executives when needed.
  • Assist visiting executives and guests with hospitality and logistics.

Professionalism & Confidentiality

  • Handle sensitive information with absolute discretion.
  • Build strong, positive working relationships across all levels of the organization.
  • Collaborate with the broader administrative team and proactively support colleagues when needed.

Qualifications

  • A bachelor's degree is highly preferred.
  • Minimum of three years' experience supporting 2+ senior executives simultaneously, ideally in private equity, financial services, consulting, investment management, or similarly demanding corporate environments.
  • Proven experience navigating fast paced, high performance settings with composure and professionalism.

Skills & Attributes

  • Exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and organization.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to handle shifting priorities and manage frequent time sensitive deadlines.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
