Executive Operations Assistant

Job Summary

• The Executive Operations Assistant serves as the critical strategic enablement anchor for the Managing Director (MD), Partners, and the broader Group delivery engine.
• Far beyond traditional administrative support, this high-impact role functions as a protective filter, a high-EQ stakeholder liaison, and an operational coordinator.
• The ideal candidate possesses predictive problem-solving capabilities, flawless narrative delivery, and the agility to manage complex global logistics and special corporate initiatives seamlessly within a fast-paced consulting environment.

• Calendar, Travel & Office Operations
• Strategic Meeting Capture & Follow-Through

Requirements
What We Are Looking For:

• Educational Background: A Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration, Finance, Economics, Law, International Relations, or another rigorous, analytical field.
• Professional Experience: 3–6 years of hands-on experience supporting C-suite executives, managing partners, or senior officials — in consulting, investment banking, government advisory, or another fast-moving professional environment.
• Real exposure to government institutions, regulators, or DFI counterparts, and a track record that shows people have trusted you with their confidence and let you represent them externally.
• Listening & Synthesis: Can sit through a dense, fast-moving discussion and afterwards tell someone exactly what was decided and what happens next.
• Versatility / Range: Moves easily between a financial conversation, a government meeting, and a technical discussion in the same day, without losing footing in any of them.
• Influence Without Authority: Gets people moving — across teams and outside the organisation — without needing formal authority over them.
• Communication & Personal Presence: Writes and speaks well, carries a presence that earns trust quickly, and treats confidential information as exactly that.
• Cross-Cultural Adaptability: Comfortable working across cultures and, ideally, languages; the work spans Nigeria, Namibia, and other markets, often in the same week.
