Team Assistant

Job description / Role

This is a superb opportunity to work for an employer who has seen the value of ‘work from home’ and as such is in the process of implementing a permanent hybrid system for all their staff.

Our client has had a strong regional presence for the past thirty years, with offices in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Oman and KSA and operate a flexible working model. We are seeking a proactive individual, who is commercially aligned and can support the teams across the region, whilst providing EA support to the General Manager. This role will play an important part in the continuity, growth and continued success of the business.

Principle accountabilities include full diary and travel management, inbox and linked in responses, assistance with research, proposal work and business development, assisting with the brand marketing strategy and overseeing the monthly accounts and client invoicing.

Requirements

Currently our client operates a virtual working model in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, however this will move to a hybrid model in the future and office management responsibilities will be a core function for the Team Assistant. These will include liaison with the relevant licensing authority, maintenance and facilities management and assisting with staff recruitment, hence there is significant room for growth in the position.

This is very much a team focused role and will suit an individual who enjoys working in a friendly, focused and people centric environment. We are looking for someone who has previous EA experience with strong organisational and project management skills, attention to detail and who is well able to handle pressure in a deadline driven environment.
