Your Role as an Executive Assistant

As an Executive Assistant at Shangri-La, you will provide administrative support to multiple Directors and members of the Executive team. Your typical schedule will be Monday through Friday, with responsibilities that may shift depending on business and leadership needs.

Day-to-day responsibilities may include managing calendars, scheduling and coordinating meetings, preparing agendas and meeting materials, organizing travel arrangements, drafting correspondence, preparing reports and presentations, maintaining records and documentation, and assisting with routine administrative requests.

You will also help coordinate communication and follow-up between departments, track action items and deadlines, assist with special projects, and support leaders with the day-to-day tasks necessary to keep their departments operating efficiently.

This position requires someone who can anticipate needs, identify priorities, and take ownership of assignments with limited direction. Because you will support multiple leaders, the ability to stay organized, exercise good judgment, maintain confidentiality, and quickly adjust priorities will be essential.
