Humans of HR is working with a well‑established organization to find a Senior Executive Assistant to support a high‑level executive and play a key role within the executive office.
This is not your typical EA position. The successful candidate will be someone who can operate with a high degree of discretion and independence, while also taking on elements of project coordination, business support, and executive office management.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Executive Assistant who enjoys being the person behind the scenes making sure everything runs smoothly.

Coordinate meetings, appointments, travel arrangements and other executive priorities
Prepare, organize and manage confidential correspondence and business documentation
Support the executive office with projects, initiatives and follow-up items
Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders across multiple time zones
Translate and interpret business documents and communications as required
Help manage competing priorities and ensure important items are followed through to completion
Work closely with other members of the executive support team
Take on a variety of projects and responsibilities as required — no two days will necessarily look the same
What We're Looking For:
7+ years of progressive Executive Assistant or senior executive support experience
Experience supporting a senior executive, founder, owner, president or similarly senior leader
Fluency in either Mandarin or Cantonese is required
Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
Strong judgment and discretion when handling confidential information
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a quick‑paced environment
A highly proactive, adaptable and solutions‑oriented approach
Strong technology skills and confidence working with business systems and digital tools
Willingness to step outside of a traditional EA scope and take ownership of projects and priorities
