• Experience in a fast-paced corporate environment; public company experience is a plus.
• Strong calendar management, travel coordination, communication, and organizational skills.
• Exceptional judgment, discretion, and attention to detail.
• Ability to prioritize competing demands and work independently.
• Comfortable managing up and respectfully holding an executive accountable.
• Professional, confident, and able to remain above workplace drama.
• Resourceful, solutions-oriented, and willing to roll up your sleeves and get things done.
