Executive assistant placement

An executive assistant runs a C-level executive's working day: the calendar, travel, correspondence and meetings.

What does an executive assistant do?

Most of the job is deciding what gets the executive's time: which requests deserve a meeting, and what has to be on the desk before each one starts. Then comes the follow-up, which executives notice most when it slips: the call that was promised, or the document someone is still waiting for.

When the executive's own errands and appointments are eating into the day, a personal assistant may be the better hire, or a second one. A chief of staff is a different hire, for an executive whose decisions stall once they leave the room.

An assistant deals with the rest of the office all day, so we ask about those people as well as about the executive. We interview every candidate and check their references before we present anyone.
