Executive Assistant

Do you want to do work that matters, alongside supportive leaders who will help you grow faster than you ever thought possible? Are you a creative problem‑solver who is energized by challenges? You’ve come to the right place.

YOUR IMPACT

You’ll build meaningful, collaborative relationships with your teammates and colleagues who depend on your administrative support. Whether it’s managing a full calendar, scheduling meetings across various time zones, or arranging and coordinating complex travel logistics, you’ll apply your multitasking, organizational, and decision‑making skills to fulfill critical administrative and logistical requests. At McKinsey, we have three different assistant roles: executive, team, and relief. As an executive assistant, you will provide long‑term support for several executive‑level colleagues, learning their preferences and developing close working relationships. As a team assistant, you will support client service teams for the duration of their client engagements from one to 12+ months, coordinating their working style and managing multiple schedules. And as a relief executive assistant, you will provide backup cover for absent assistants, supporting consultants for a short period of time, which gives you the opportunity to expand your network quickly and gain exposure to different regions, industries, and functions in which McKinsey operates. During the recruiting process, we’ll work together with you to align your skills and experience with one of these positions. We’re seeking professionals with an attention to detail and ability to solve problems in a collaborative and inclusive team environment. We place a high value on emotional intelligence. Your ability to engage and respond appropriately will be critical in maintaining relationships with executive‑level colleagues. This role is an excellent opportunity for professionals with experience in customer service, corporate administration, client support, or those currently in assistant roles who want to further develop their knowledge and ability. We offer extensive training to help you deepen your skills and develop your expertise. To better understand the role, see a day in the life of our executive assistants. As part of the Manila community, you will immerse yourself in a dynamic culture that fosters growth and development.
