Screen calls and emails and deal with what does not need the boss.

Draft letters, reports and presentations in the house style.

At least 4 years supporting a senior manager or director
Excellent written English and polished emails
Discreet with board, salary and legal information
Available for the odd early start or late finish
Calm when plans change at the last minute
