Coordinate logistics for meetings, events, and board calls — from planning and agenda setting to venue booking and materials preparation.
Arrange complex travel itineraries (domestic and international), often across multiple time zones, including for family members when needed.
Manage expenses, process reimbursements through Concur, and keep accurate records of transactions and business-related activity.
Communicate clearly and professionally with internal and external stakeholders, handling confidential information with the highest level of discretion.
Anticipate needs, manage shifting priorities, and respond swiftly to last-minute requests or changes.
Support occasional personal tasks such as appointment scheduling, household coordination, or errands, with professionalism and efficiency.

Skills & Experience

Collaborative, organised, and responsive professional with experience supporting senior executives or multiple stakeholders.
Ability to prioritise, multitask, and remain calm in a fast-paced, global work environment.
Excellent interpersonal and written communication skills, with a strong understanding of confidentiality and discretion.
Comfortable working independently and making informed decisions in situations where processes may be ambiguous or rapidly evolving.
