The Sr Executive Assistant plays a critical role in enabling executive and senior leaders to operate at their highest potential by providing strategic administrative partnership, not just transactional task support.

- Serve as a proactive administrative partner to assigned executives and leadership teams by anticipating needs, identifying risks, and optimizing how time and resources are used.

- Prioritization tradeoffs

- Conflict resolution and escalation

- Identify opportunities to simplify, standardize, or automate administrative processes.
- Leverage Microsoft 365 tools — including Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and Copilot — to improve productivity and reduce manual work.
- Coach and enable leaders to effectively self‑serve appropriate administrative tasks using Copilot and other digital tools.
- Continuously build digital fluency and stay current on new tools and capabilities that support the “Admin of the Future” model.
- Support special projects, executive initiatives, and ad‑hoc requests requiring coordination, judgment, or discretion.
- Actively identify opportunities to improve ways of working, enhance leader experience, and reduce friction.
- Participate in upskilling, development, and change initiatives tied to Project Atlas and future state operations.
- This role reports to the Head of Sales - Snacks.
- This role will also support the SVP DSD Transformation and Execution.
- Demonstrated ability to exercise sound judgment in high‑pressure, ambiguous situations.
- Trusted with confidential and highly sensitive information.
- Ability to prioritize competing demands and make recommendations aligned to business impact.
- Advanced proficiency in:
- Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, SharePoint)
- Microsoft Copilot (or demonstrated learning agility to adopt AI‑enabled tools)
- SAP / Ariba, Concur (or similar), and ServiceNow
- Comfort coaching others on the use of productivity and self‑service technology.
- Strong organizational and follow‑through skills with attention to detail.
- Ability to adapt quickly as priorities shift and new demands emerge.
- Thrives in environments with changing expectations and evolving operating models.
- Demonstrated success operating in complex, fast‑paced environments.
- Clear, concise, and professional communication skills (written and verbal).
