Sr. Executive Assistant
LHH
Senior Executive Assistant (High-Level Support)
A reputable, fast-paced organization is seeking a highly experienced Executive Assistant to support senior leadership in a true right-hand capacity. This role requires someone who has already demonstrated success operating in a demanding, executive-facing environment and can step in with confidence, discretion, and minimal direction.
This is not an entry-level or developmental EA role —we’re looking for a professional who is accustomed to managing complexity, anticipating needs, and partnering closely with leadership.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide seamless, high-level support to senior executives with competing priorities
- Own and manage complex, constantly shifting calendars with strategic foresight
- Coordinate high-stakes meetings, leadership materials, and executive communications
- Serve as a trusted gatekeeper and liaison across internal and external stakeholders
- Handle confidential matters with sound judgment and professionalism
- Manage detailed travel logistics and expense reporting with precision
- Identify gaps, streamline processes, and proactively solve problems
Qualifications (Required)
- 1+ years of experience in a true Executive Assistant role supporting senior leadership
- Demonstrated ability to operate independently in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment
- Proven track record of managing complex scheduling and executive priorities
- Strong business judgment, discretion, and professionalism
- Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
- Clear, polished communication style
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent directly relevant executive support experience
Highly Preferred
- Experience supporting multiple executives or C-suite leaders
- Background in structured, corporate environments with high standards of professionalism
- Longevity in prior EA roles demonstrating reliability and trust
Who Should Apply
This opportunity is best suited for an Executive Assistant who:
- Has already owned an executive support function—not someone looking to grow into it
- Is comfortable working with minimal oversight and high expectations
- Takes initiative, anticipates needs, and thrives under pressure
- Values professionalism, trust, and being a critical partner behind the scenes
If you’re a seasoned Executive Assistant who takes pride in operating at a high level—we’d love to connect.
