    Company Overview


    JOB SUMMARY :

    Under the direction of the Executive Leadership team, the Executive Assistant is responsible for providing varied, complex, and confidential office administrative and professional support services for the Executive team.

    This position ensures timely flow of information to and from the executive team; handles details of a highly confidential and critical nature; and functions efficiently and effectively in a fast-paced professional environment.

    The Executive Assistant manages multiple tasks and projects with competing priorities and deadlines, screens and prioritize communications and opportunities from external and internal sources and organize and maintain administrative processes.

    In addition, this position will be responsible for coordinating and preparing presentations, travel, meeting arrangements and correspondence.

    The focus of this position centers around the careful, deliberate, imaginative, and serious undertaking of defined work.

    The job requires an ability to deal in a systematic and patient way with factual and technical information and processes, as well as an ability to focus directly on the knowledge base required for the task.

    This job requires a serious and disciplined approach and to do it well may mean doing it alone. Doing this job successfully requires focus on the immediate work to be done.

    Getting it 'done right', with no mistakes is key to the position. This job is primarily task-focused and does not rely heavily on interactive or social skills. In fact, there are few responsibilities in that area, and significant private time to think and absorb information.

    Due to the detailed, accuracy-focused nature of this job, the successful candidate will be subject to close scrutiny that may subject the candidate to both worry and criticism.

    Because this is a creative, technical position and because it requires a high level of expertise and accuracy, it provides opportunity to thoroughly plan in order to do the job right.
