The Executive Assistant will be part of the COO's team and will work closely with the COO/CFO (Adeel Manzoor), his Chief of Staff, the Executive Assistant to the CEO and the COO team, ensuring the COO and his team are operating at peak performance in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

The Chief Operating Officer will often heavily rely on the Executive Assistant, trusting that work will be handled efficiently, fast, proactively and to the highest standards in the COO's name. In addition to the daily administrative tasks and responsibilities, the Executive Assistant will be the “eyes and ears” of the COO, having access to influential individuals, and partners to our company. Discretion and confidentiality are therefore essential attributes.

• Proactive support of COO's day-to-day business, ensuring the COO's time is focused on the highest value activities and business issues. Anticipate needs and accomplishes responsibilities without direction.
• Complex and articulate diary management (of a very active agenda), which includes coordination and management of appointments and events with high profile partners and customers. Prepares end-to-end agendas and management of all logistics and itineraries. Together with the COO, Chief of Staff, take decisions to prioritize requests based on shifting business priorities, allocating appropriate amount of time and ensuring that all meeting details are accurate. 
• Preparation of complex and detailed travel itineraries (domestic & internationally) including flight and hotel bookings, transfers, appropriate travel visas, and expense claim management
• Coordination of communications between the COO and internal or external stakeholders. Provide discrete and confidential coordination of sensitive company information and use discretion in interfacing with all levels of individuals.
• Develop collaborative relationships with others who have a diverse set of working styles and perspectives.
• Working closely with the COO and his Chief of Staff to keep them informed of upcoming commitments and activities. Acting as a “gatekeeper”, creating win-win scenarios in bids for direct access to the COO's time

• You’re flexible, calm under pressure, and comfortable juggling several priorities at once.
