  • Develop and maintain a liaison with suppliers and contractors; provide informational support.
  • Assist with special events, such as staff meetings, and other project work
  • Work closely with other Executive Assistants to coordinate daily activities, events, and meetings
  • Liaise with the other departments as necessary for joint projects, ongoing communication and sharing of information and resources
  • Share reception duties including couriers and mail with other administrative professionals in office
  • Working independently with a high level of professionalism, confidentiality, judgment and discretion

WHAT YOU WILL BRING:

  • Excellent interpersonal skills to build relationships with internal and external stakeholders
  • Ideally, a minimum level of education required is a Diploma in Business, Hospitality, or Event Management
  • Minimum three years' experience of relevant work experience supporting senior level executives. A combination of education and experience will be considered

  • Discreet and able to handle highly confidential and sensitive information
  • Excellent IT skills
  • Proven selfstarter who thrives in a fastpaced and challenging environment with shifting priorities; ability to handle deadlines
  • Flexibility in regards to work tasks, as well as working hours in order to meet the demand of competing schedules and fluctuating pace of daily activities
