• Provide administrative support to the Chief People Officer, including calendar management, meeting and conference coordination, interview scheduling, conference room coordination, visitor management, expense support, and presentation/deck preparation.
• Coordinate interview logistics and calendars, creating a polished and organized experience for candidates and interview teams.

Qualifications

• Previous experience in reception, hospitality, customer service, administrative support, office coordination, or another client-facing role preferred.
• Friendly, polished, and professional communication skills with a genuine interest in creating a positive experience for employees and guests.
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple calendars, meetings, requests, and priorities at once.
• Dependable and punctual, with the ability to work onsite Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM–5:00 PM.
• Comfortable using Google Workspace, calendars, presentation tools, and modern productivity/AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude; willingness to learn new technology quickly.
