Executive Assistant in Frankfurt am Main bei Boston Consulting Group

WHAT YOU'LL DO

You solve problems before anyone even knows they exist! As a dynamic, motivated Executive Assistant, you’ll support our MDPs and Directors largely independently.

You’ll organize and take charge of Partners’ appointments, while effectively and proactively prioritizing on their behalf in relevant situations. You’ll identify the right priorities and coordinate the relevant processes to ensure that our consultants have exactly what they need to optimally fulfill our clients’ needs. You’ll make decisions and provide advice based on your familiarity with our clients and what our Partners want. You’ll book (and cancel) business trips, schedule (and reschedule) meetings, keep an eye on timing and costs, support daily work, and effortlessly keep up with our consultants’ fast pace.

While our consultants spend most of their time with our clients, your home base will be the Frankfurt office, where you’ll be surrounded by numerous teams comprised of truly smart, team-oriented people. Our Executive Assistants actively participate in office life and are flexible and willing to help fellow team members and collaborate across functions.
