Frustrated expression, Exceptional Talent

Without an experienced executive assistant…

  • Your logistical planning and vendor and personnel management range from nightmare to full-time job 

  • Your calendar runs your life, and the tiniest schedule mishap can ruin your day — especially with cross-town meetings, complex international commercial and private travel, and time-sensitive helicopter transfers

  • You’re constantly presented with mediocre vendors — where do you find the quality ones?

  • You can’t spend another minute doing someone else’s job — you need to be the visionary and the face of the company 

  • You’re overwhelmed with too many details, from office events to board meetings and summits — you need someone to take care of everything so you can simply show up

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Engaging an executive assistant raises many unknowns — especially if this is your first time searching.

  • Executive assistants have distinct personalities. They’re obsessed with details and stress over the tiniest item's accuracy. It takes one to know one (that’s me!). Since I’ve been and have worked with many executive assistants, I know exactly what qualities and skills (including the invisible ones) I’m looking for.

  • We define qualifications for your executive assistant based on the roles, industries, and prior experience.

  • While there are some nuances to roles, most executive assistants have highly transferable skills and can learn the industry. More importantly, an executive assistant’s communication skills and work style align with your needs.

    Even if you’ve had difficulty finding the right assistant, my creative thinking has discovered many exceptional fits.

    I write job and role descriptions that attract talent for each client (I never provide one-size-fits-all descriptions). Having worked in high-level executive support roles, I know what job seekers want to know and how to speak to the right person to encourage them to apply.

  • I’ve been an executive assistant, personal assistant, and family assistant — and I was exceptional. Because I’ve been there, I tailor job descriptions that speak to candidates and make them want the role.

    Most recruiters have no real fieldwork experience. They don’t understand the nuances of roles and industries and are often resume factories relying on high volume and fling-it-to-the-wall strategies.

    Executive assistants appreciate working with me because they trust me and know I’ll only share their information with their consent.

  • You’re working with someone who has worked first-hand in the role and understands the demands. I’m not a salesperson. I’m committed to helping great companies hire effective and innately motivated candidates
