Our client is looking for a very experienced and pro active Executive Assistant to work with the Principal as a right hand person.
It is essential that you have an understanding of private households; they are not able to consider candidates with only corporate experience.
You will need to have a service focus, be able to work well with the other PA's within the family and able to multitask, remain calm under pressure and be adaptable.
Some experience of running projects will also be beneficial and preferred.
Your responsibilities will include the following:
- Attending meetings with the Principal
- Making comprehensive notes/ minutes - taking into account any actions agreed etc.
- Holding a debrief with the Principal
- Creating and devising action plans and ensuring that these are communicated clearly to the Principal and that the actions are carried out.
- Undertaking research
- Networking
In essence the Principal will be the 'front' person and the EA will be the driver and manager behind the projects and as such accountable.
The Principal is a sociable person and you will also need to mirror this.
You need to be a car driver and have your own car.
