Professional Executive Personal Assistant with 10 years plus relevant experience. Attention to detail is key whilst energy, enthusiasm and commitment is a necessity to the success of any task I undertake.
Show profile Hide profileI believe a vital part of the role of an Executive Assistant is to understand and anticipate the needs of their manager and ultimately make their life as smooth and unproblematic as possible. With experience in extensive diary management, the ability to organise any travel requirements, run events and other high profile activities I feel able to effectively assist and provide support while thinking on my feet and overseeing my boss's day.
Having worked in support functions over the last 10 years I have a demonstrable understanding of the requirements and implication of working with a variety of senior figures and can exercise compassion, assertiveness and remain utterly confidential when situations demand. I have strong administration, IT and financial skills and am also able to contribute to creative projects, having co-ordinated marketing, communication and event activities in previous roles. I am confident in my ability to exhibit the skills and attributes needed to make a successful and efficient Executive Assistant and to contribute to a fast paced and highly creative organisation.
