About the role

  • Executive Assistant providing multi‑executive support in Dubai overseeing complex calendar management and communication. Focused on enhancing efficiency and decision-making for leadership teams.

Responsibilities

  • Orchestrate complex, multi‑time‑zone calendars for the CEO and Managing Partners; build weekly buffers, travel holds, and decision windows.
  • Proactively resolve clashes using clear priority rules; communicate trade‑offs to stakeholders.
  • Draft, proof, and send executive-level correspondence, maintaining voice consistency and brand tone.
  • Guard focus: triage inbound requests, negotiate priorities, and say “no” diplomatically with alternatives.
  • Own meeting lifecycle: objective → agenda → pre‑reads → participants → room/VC → minutes → action tracking.
  • End‑to‑end travel: visas, flights, hotels, ground, contingencies; coordinate with protocol teams when relevant.
  • Coordinate board/steerco packs, version control, and deadlines; ensure secure distribution and access permissions.
  • Enforce need‑to‑know access; sanitise/redact documents; manage signatures and legal templates (e.g., NDAs).

Requirements

  • 5–8+ years supporting multiple senior executives (CEO/COO/CSO or equivalent), ideally in the UAE/GCC.
  • Demonstrated judgment under time pressure; ability to set and defend SLAs and boundaries.
  • Exceptional written and verbal English; Arabic a plus.
  • Advanced proficiency in Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 (calendar rules, shared inboxes, Sheets/Excel, Docs/Word, Slides/PowerPoint), Zoom/Teams, and a task system (Asana/ClickUp/Notion, etc.).
  • Strong document control (versioning, permissions), redaction, and basic data privacy awareness.
  • High discretion, maturity, and diplomacy with VIP stakeholders; culturally attuned to UAE norms and rhythms (including Ramadan and public holidays).
