  • Plan and organize meetings, events, and travel logistics, often involving multiple stakeholders and tight deadlines

  • Handle confidential information with care and professionalism

  • Support strategic initiatives like business unit strategy deployment and tiered management

  • Prioritize competing demands and deliver exceptional support under pressure

  • Provide backup support to other leaders or administrative staff when needed

  Required Experience:

  • 3–5 years of experience as an executive or administrative assistant

  Preferred:
