Job Summary:
Typical Day in the Role
· Purpose of the Team: The purpose of this team is supporting the executive office, a building largely made up of high-level executives from various organizations and groups.
· Key projects: This role will contribute to calendar support for both the Chief of Finance and the manager for this role, but most of the work is supporting the administrative community for the larger executive team. The team can move very fast paced and frequently deals with many last-minute changes. The role will support all meetings and other initiatives that the team supports, including helping with learning sessions on how to grow as an admin. This role will grow into a backup for the manager while they or other members of the admin team are out of office as well.
· The role will help book travel; however, the exec office has a dedicated travel team they will work with that will streamline the process significantly. Intermediate Excel proficiency is required, as many reports are tracked in excel including a few utilizing pivot tables.
· Typical task breakdown and operating rhythm: The role will consist of various activities that will be changing day to day due to the fast-paced nature of the role. Calendaring will not be a heavy lift - most days will start with connecting with the manager to find out where they're needed that day before acting. Ad hoc support could potentially include drafting broad team emails to send out, drafting PowerPoints for team trainings, possibly making the team coffee, picking up lunch, booking rooms for leadership offsites, ordering catering for offsites, supporting other admins while they're out of office, etc.

· Best vs. Average: The ideal resume would contain previous experience working in a confidential environment or managing confidential communications/work, such as paralegal or legal work, previous experience in HR, or otherwise navigating around confidential information.
