  • Maintain organized records, files, and shared resources
  • Assist with Company event planning, including hands-on setup, coordination of catering and supplies, and post-event cleanup and space restoration
  • Support ad hoc projects, special initiatives, and process improvements
  • At more senior levels, may support complex scheduling across multiple time zones, manage executive communications, and lead office or administrative initiatives independently
