• Build a strong understanding of the priorities, operating rhythms and stakeholder requirements of allocated executives and their functional leadership teams.
• Support functional leadership team activities connected to the allocation, including meetings, planning sessions, travel, invoices, actions and follow-up.

• Significant experience providing executive assistance in a complex corporate environment, including support to senior executives
• Demonstrated capability managing complex diaries, priorities, travel, expenses and executive workflows
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with strong attention to detail and the ability to adapt style for different audiences
