  • Offer support on a variety of personal matters and supervise the Private Assistant and her tasks.
  • Work alongside a team of Executive Assistants, share best practices, and cover when required.

Your toolkit

  • 3-5 years of experience as an Executive Assistant supporting management and/or founder roles.
  • Fluent in English and German (B2 minimum).
  • Excellent planning and prioritization skills, requiring little guidance.
  • Organized and always one step ahead, constantly reviewing all activities and improving efficiency.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work efficiently and accurately under pressure and tight deadlines.
  • Excellent communication skills with stakeholders internally and externally, including senior leadership.
  • Able to prioritize and balance conflicting demands, even on short notice, with a calm and solution-oriented mindset.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, sometimes ambiguous environment with changing priorities.
  • Strong sense of responsibility, high level of commitment, and integrity.
  • Positive and proactive attitude with a solution-oriented approach.
  • Maintains absolute discretion and confidentiality at all times.
  • Can collaborate effectively in a team environment and contribute to a supportive EA team culture.
  • Tech-savvy and confident using G Suite, MS Office, and collaboration tools.
  • Uses AI regularly to improve day-to-day work outcomes and is curious to explore new tools and ways of working.

This role is a ~1+ year fixed-term contract (maternity cover).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
