Handle ad hoc requests and unexpected priorities calmly, in a fast-changing, high-pressure environment

What We're Looking For
Strong track record of managing complex calendars, competing priorities, and tight deadlines
Excellent research skills, with comfort using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity) to work faster and produce sharper output
A proactive mindset, someone who spots what needs to happen next rather than waiting to be told

Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
High level of discretion and professionalism when handling confidential matters
Ability to thrive under pressure and adapt quickly in a fast-paced workplace
Strong organizational skills and meticulous attention to detail
