Senior Administrative Assistant / Office Manager

Job Description

Job Description

The Croner Company provides peerless compensation expertise and data for decision-makers at leading and emerging enterprises in entertainment, digital media, technology, philanthropy, and nonprofit services. 

 

We are looking for a career administrative professional with 10+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Office Manager, or similar role. The ideal candidate is someone who has built a career of excellence supporting business leaders and office functions. If you take pride in running a great office, supporting busy professionals at a high level, and being the person in the room who makes sure everything and everyone’s business needs are taken care of, we want to hear from you.

 

This is a hands-on role for a generalist with a steady, dependable presence. On any given day you might be scheduling several client meetings, formatting a proposal, restocking the kitchen, and tracking down a lead in our CRM system. We need someone equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves for mundane tasks as they are managing a Principal Consultant's calendar. 

 

Key Responsibilities

 

• Provides direct, hands-on administrative support to two Principal Consultants and the Director of Operations, including calendar and meeting management, correspondence with clients, occasional travel coordination and workflow support.
  
  
  
   
• Prepares, formats and proofs client-facing materials (proposals, presentations, reports); maintains shared documents and version control.
  
• Plans and coordinates employee and client events and meetings, including logistics, scheduling, communications, meal planning and follow-up, from start to finish.
  
  
  
   
• Runs day-to-day office administration, including supply management, team meeting and activity coordination, daily setup and light cleanup of common areas.
  
• Enters and maintains leads, contacts, RFPs, and engagement details in our CRM system.
  
• Handles routine onboarding logistics for new hires and interns (paperwork, workspace setup, first-week coordination) as directed by the Director of Operations.
  
  
  
   
• Provides general administrative backup across the team wherever a hand is needed. This role is the office's utility player.

The Croner Company reserves the right to add to or modify the responsibilities and duties of this position when necessary and appropriate in response to business needs.

 

Qualifications

• 10+ years of administrative or office management experience as an Executive Assistant, Office Manager, or Senior Administrative Assistant. We are looking for a career admin professional.
  
• A generalist mindset comfortable moving between high-level executive support and hands-on physical office tasks (setup, cleanup, supplies, errands).
  
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and shifting deadlines.
  
• Clear, professional and error-free written and oral communication.
  
• Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
  
• Hands-on CRM experience (Microsoft Dynamics 365 preferred; Salesforce or similar accepted).
  
• Experience in a consulting or professional services environment is a strong plus.
  
• A steady, dependable, team-first presence. We need someone who genuinely enjoys being the person a whole office can count on.
  
• Proven discretion, reliability and sound judgment supporting leadership and client-facing teams.
  
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience preferred.
