The ideal candidate is proactive, highly intuitive, exceptionally detail-oriented, and able to bring structure to a dynamic, fluid schedule.

This Principal has a creative, free-flowing working style and is looking for someone who genuinely enjoys building a strong relationship with their executive. Daily touchpoints and open communication are important; this is not a transactional EA relationship.
