About the Client
An investment firm is looking for a Senior Executive Assistant to support a senior investment professional and keep priorities, follow-ups, and deliverables moving across a fast-paced workload.
The firm operates in a globally connected environment where the executive travels regularly and works across many contacts, documents, and industry events. The team is building internal systems for task tracking, documentation, and knowledge management, and uses AI tools to streamline administrative work.
About the Role
This role goes beyond traditional administrative support. The Senior Executive Assistant manages inboxes and calendars, tracks tasks and follow-ups, coordinates travel, and prepares meeting briefs so the executive can focus on strategic priorities. Success means that within 30 days, inbox, calendar, and document organization are improved and a reliable task tracking system is in place. By 60 to 90 days, day-to-day executive workflows run independently and leadership can delegate without monitoring every task.

Task & Workflow Management

- Follow up with internal and external stakeholders to keep work moving and prevent delays.
- Implement and manage internal systems for task tracking, documentation, and knowledge management.
- Use AI tools to summarize information, organize documents, and streamline administrative workflows.
- Improve processes continuously to free up leadership time for strategic priorities.
Business & Administrative Coordination
- Track follow-ups with external contacts so opportunities and requests are not missed.
- Organize incoming business documents and prepare information for leadership review.
- Research companies, contacts, and industry events as needed.
- Coordinate travel, including flights, accommodations, and itineraries.
- Research relevant conferences and set up meetings with key contacts in advance.
