Executive Assistant 1

Description

So what does an Executive Assistant really do? Gone are the days when Executive Assistants only manage calendars, bookings and make coffee runs. Think of yourself as a “mini-me” of your executive, a subject matter expert, a decision-maker, and an air traffic controller. So not just anyone is qualified for this role! We make sure we get the best of the best, after all, we are a ridiculously good company so we make sure our employees are top-notch. Now we need your full concentration because it’s time to imagine what it’s like being an Executive Assistant.

Imagine yourself going to work with one thing on your mind : You basically make your boss look good! As you tackle your new tasks for the day, you know that it comes down to one thing : that you’re a direct reflection of your executive and your responsible for their productivity as well as their teams.

As an Executive Assistant, Your day will usually go around checking your calendar for today’s agenda. In terms of their calendar, you must keep in mind that your executive’s time is precious and limited so you need to know what’s important and how to balance it all. Meanwhile, in terms of emails, you’re exposed daily to highly confidential information so you’re expected to be tactful and pragmatic. Expect that you will be doing a lot of tasks which include getting coffee, implementing company-wide initiatives, to pretty much coordinating with everyone. So prepare to be resourceful to make things happen!

What else? You must also make presentations and take notes as you will have to capture the keynotes and log key action items. You will also be a gatekeeper and also someone who is not afraid to chase down people for information (in the Philippines, US, or wherever). Your work hours will vary in some way it would be sort of split shift where they work early morning Philippine time into the afternoon so as to cover the US afternoon and then part of the Philippine day, but the hours may change time to time, depending on what major activities are going on with IT at the time.
