Executive Assistant (m/f/d)

Partner Support

• Manage calendars across several Partners, owning the scheduling and resolving competing priorities
• Organise travel end to end: bookings, itineraries, and last-minute changes
• Coordinate meetings internally and with external counterparts
• Handle reimbursements and expense processing
• Draft correspondence on behalf of the Partners in German and English, including communication with external contacts
• Turn open questions into decisions the Partners can make quickly - researched, weighed up, with a recommendation attached
• Handle conference logistics and research relevant side events

Ways of Working

• Build reusable templates, prompts, and workflows so recurring drafting and coordination do not start from scratch every time
• Question how things are done today and automate where a human is not needed; you do not need a technical background, but you do need the curiosity to try things and the judgement to know where automation stops

Cross-Functional Support

• Coordinate firm-wide meetings and team dates as the person with the best overview of everyone's calendars
• Step in on recurring team processes alongside HR, Communications and Finance
