Regional Executive Assistant / PA

More like a fireman and spin doctor than a PA! Every day is certainly not your typical day at the office, instead its sorting out Regional office meetings, coordinating (Regional office Managers or herding cats) to get to meetings on time - i think its an industry way of working. Sorting out the Reception/Kitchen/Cleaning staff queries, meetings, problems/staff absenteeism to ensure the smooth running of back of office functions that one seems to take for granted in a typical office environment. Be CALM & quick to think on your feet is a daily mantra. Find solutions rather than escalate them. Soft skills - like remembering special occasions, birthday, births, hospital stays etc for staff. They are the cogs in the wheel. Challenges are different personalities and clearing my Director's Inbox (which is 90% in French but nothing that GOOGLE TRANSLATE" doesn't help with! I like to know that i can and have made a difference in the 8 months that i have been here.

Pros: Great working environment from a Skills perspective & 1st female Director makes it a pleasure to work for.
Cons: Travelling distance - traffic is a bit of a negative.
