Employment: Full Time

A professional services organisation with offices across the world now have two vacancies for a Team Assistant within their Dubai office. The organisation prides itself on their adaptability and work ethics to ensure they attract clients from a wide range of industry sectors including energy, financial services, health care, private equity and telecoms and as such this role can offer fantastic career growth.

Reporting to the Senior EA Team leader you will work closely to support the Partner Group and provide comprehensive administrative, secretarial, and organisational support, ensuring full support with diary management, global travel itineraries and associated documents. This is a fast paced and dynamic environment, and it is imperative that you can be flexible in your approach to the role, fully committed and able to manage highly confidential and evolving project objectives and strategies. You will be a consummate professional and able to anticipate needs and be a strong problem solver, taking decisions to maximize the Partner’s time and efficiencies.

You will also act as a gate keeper to field calls and emails and where possible, resolve any queries at the initial stage to manage workload and flow of information effectively. You will liaise with internal stakeholders in various global offices, developing and maintaining strong co-operative relationships at all levels. Strong communication skills are therefore vital in the English language.

It is expected that you will have excellent MS Office skills with a minimum of 2 years’ administrative experience in an international environment, within the professional sectors.
