Executive Assistant and Office Manager
The Opportunity:
We're looking for a tech-savvy, high-energy executive assistant based in Virginia Beach, near the oceanfront. A winning attitude and thirst for learning will make up for SOME prior experience as an EA in the right candidate. The career trajectory of an EA at our company moves you toward project management as you learn the business and obtain PMI experience.
The Day to Day:
The focus of this job is assisting executives with day to day tasks. You will be expected to work with us to prepare presentations, proof papers, plan minor projects and track the progress of individuals assigned to those projects, as well as set up shared on-line services (which includes a lot of provisioning of on-line accounts). You will be responsible for light bookkeeping, which means being comfortable using a spreadsheet program. Note taking, scheduling and keeping multiple calendars, report writing and e-mail communications will be frequent tasks. The ideal candidate is acquisitive about quality goods and services, able to plan travel, logistics and events and provide ongoing status to stakeholders in an expedient and friendly manner. The office management aspects of the job are minimal, but include running errands, such as trips to the post office, restaurants, etc., as well as tidying up the office areas and enhancing the overall office experience for their coworkers. Work requires normal physical attributes necessary for walking, standing, sitting, operating office equipment, lifting, moving, and carrying light equipment and supplies, as well as fast typing skills. Your ability to escort and oversee vendors for the facility and manage them to their deliverables is a key aspect of the position.
Technical skills such as experience creating on-line accounts and managing social media or other on-line services is a must. If you’ve set up a VPN or VPS account or even a web site, that’s even better!
The ideal candidate is an effective communicator (written and spoken) with enough organizational skills, empathy and leadership potential to show us you can stay on a path of career advancement. In our company, you're either moving up or moving out.
