Executive Assistant

Launch Your Long-Term EA Career at a Top-Tier Global Firm

Exclusive Opportunity | Washington, DC

This is not a traditional Executive Assistant role, and it’s not about where you’ve been. It’s about where you want to go.

A prestigious global professional services firm is seeking a bright, driven, and highly organised Executive Assistant to support a senior Partner in its Washington, DC office. This is a standout opportunity for an early-career EA who thrives in fast-paced environments and is serious about building a long-term career as a top-tier Executive Assistant.

If you love being at the centre of the action, juggling complex diaries, managing nonstop travel, and making busy executives’ lives run smoothly this role will light you up.

THE ROLE

You’ll act as the right hand to a senior leader, owning their day-to-day operations and ensuring everything runs seamlessly. This is a true EA role with exposure, responsibility, and room to grow not a stepping stone, and not admin-heavy support.

You’ll be trusted early, stretched professionally, and supported as you develop into a world-class Executive Assistant within a globally respected organisation.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Managing hectic, ever-changing calendars and scheduling across multiple time zones
• Coordinating complex domestic and international travel with precision
• Acting as a professional first point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
• Organising and supporting events, meetings, and off-sites
• Inbox management and prioritisation to keep everything moving efficiently
• Preparing, editing, and formatting documents and presentations
• Handling expenses, invoices, and administrative processes
• Keeping information organised, accurate, and confidential at all times
• Partnering closely with other EAs and internal teams to deliver seamless support

WHO THIS ROLE IS PERFECT FOR

• 2+ years’ experience as an Executive Assistant
• Someone who genuinely wants to build a long-term career as an EA, not use the role as a stopgap
• Calm under pressure, highly organised, and comfortable in fast-paced environments
• Naturally proactive, you spot problems before they land and fix them quietly
• Polished communicator with strong attention to detail
• Tech-confident and comfortable juggling multiple priorities

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

• Join a globally recognised firm with a premium reputation
• Work in a true EA role supporting a senior Partner — not shared admin
• Exposure, mentorship, and clear professional development
• A culture that values teamwork, respect, and high performance
• A role you can grow into for years, not months

Bottom line:

If you’re an ambitious EA early in your career and want a role that will stretch you, develop you, and set you up for long-term success, this is an exceptional opportunity.
