About the role
Senior Executive Assistant talent pool in London, focused on a calendar and an inbox that protect an executive's time.
This talent-pool listing is for a senior Executive Assistant based in London, United Kingdom. Day to day, the focus is a calendar and an inbox that protect an executive's time. A typical stretch of time is spent proposing a schedule, declining what does not fit, and preparing a short brief.
Responsibilities
- Own the schedule proposal so the executive can see a clash you resolved without a separate explanation.
- Every week, bring the decline up to date and resolve a meeting that should not happen before the next cycle.
- Write the brief in plain language and mention the purpose, the people, and the decision needed in the same note.
- If the travel or logistics note stalls, say so the same day and state what you already did about the time zones and documents.
- Keep the follow-up in the shared tracker, not in a personal folder.
- Treat the end-of-day list as finished only after you have checked the what is still open.
Requirements
- Roughly 5 to 8 years of supporting an executive's calendar and inbox that matches this executive assistant profile, or a shorter record with the same kind of finished work.
- Practical skill with a calendar, email, and short briefs in executive assistant work, not a certificate alone.
- Able to explain which meetings should not happen to a colleague who was not in the room.
- Careful with a day with no briefs for decision meetings; this is checked in review of executive assistant work.
- For the executive assistant brief in London, use the working language of that assignment in United Kingdom.
Nice to have
- Schedule design is useful on executive assistant assignments in London, and it is not required.
- People who have already done meeting briefs can start this executive assistant brief with less coaching.
- Follow-up lists is a plus for executive assistant work based in London.
