Partner with support staff across the organization to ensure consistent experiences
Manage domestic and international travel logistics, trip preparation and expense reporting
You must be able to juggle multiple priorities, projects, and people simultaneous, handle a high-pressure environment, be comfortable with ambiguity, and work discretion when working with sensitive information

Qualifications:

Strong planning, organizational, time management, and problem-solving skills
Minimum of 1+ years of experience supporting senior leaders or executives in a dynamic, high-growth environment
