You will join our Tampa Service Center (TSC), located in St. Petersburg, FL. The service center opened in May 2010 to provide Executive Assistant (EA) support to North America as well as Human Resources (HR) administrative support.
Since then, the TSC has expanded to become a hub for North American Finance and is home to colleagues within practice administration, recruiting, analytics, design, learning, benefits and other roles.
In the role of Executive Assistant, you will work with a diverse group of colleagues who each provide support for up to 12 consultants and managers from across the region.
Exciting work that makes a difference. Colleagues and mentors at the top of their fields. Endless opportunities to take what you know, develop your skills, and grow.
That’s life at McKinsey. It could be for you.
You will work with your assigned consultants and managers to organize and leverage their time effectively, manage their complex schedules, and coordinate their travel logistics.
Each day you will be problem-solving and multi-tasking, assuming responsibility for planning, organizing, and executing major projects (e.g., calls and meetings entailing coordination of schedules of senior leadership participants). You will also be responsible for planning client and internal meetings, conference calls, conferences / events and lunches / dinners.
You will be collaborating with clients, client administrative contacts and with department members in creating smooth workflow, including soliciting assistance from others as needed and helping others, as appropriate, and maintaining follow-through.
You will have flexibility to ensure appropriate, timely actions and that deadlines are met. You will also act as liaison for assigned individuals to ensure that various departments provide requested support in an efficient, timely manner.
