Description

Are you always looking around corners and anticipating needs? Do you believe that details matter and want to support a highly engaged team? The successful candidate must be able to communicate well and take swift, effective action whilst proactively solving complex problems with little or no guidance.

The team will make it easier for customers to manage their applications, provide centralized operations that allows taking actions in a safe manner from one place, and audit all actions for purpose of security and operational use cases. We simplify cloud management by helping customers automate and minimize their ops load and easily audit their environments and ensure compliance. We are currently expanding our organization in Seattle, Herndon, Arlington, Berlin, and London.

Key job responsibilities

• Proactively coordinate and engage with leadership in planning and organizing events, activities and calendars
• Management of complex calendars, scheduling requirements, and prioritization of executive's tasks and appointments according to their importance, urgency, and relevance.
• Act as a liaison for direct reports and business stakeholders
• Extensive travel coordination (international and domestic)
• Participate in planning of events and drive key team activities (staff meetings, all-hands meetings, supply ordering)
• Work alongside other executive assistants within the org and throughout AWS/AmSec to drive best practices and cross collaboration of efficiencies
