How You Will Create An Impact

  • Be a trusted partner to leadership by managing complex calendars, anticipating needs, and ensuring day-to-day operations run smoothly.
  • Support project teams with client-facing work – from scheduling and contract submissions to CRM updates and thoughtful client gifting.
  • Bring people together by coordinating internal and external meetings, conference calls, and events, ensuring every detail is handled, and everyone feels prepared.
  • Keep us financially sharp by helping track budgets and supporting payment processes.
  • Collaborate across departments (Legal, Finance, HR, Marketing) to ensure seamless workflows and successful outcomes.

  • Elevate client engagement by managing contact databases, crafting customer profiles, and driving outbound marketing initiatives.
  • Boost our presence online by managing Partner social media profiles (LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.) and contributing to blog posts, articles, and other content.
  • Be a true team player by providing coverage and support for other Administrative Assistants and the Office Manager as needed.
  • Take ownership of ad hoc projects that keep our office dynamic, collaborative, and innovative.
