  • Prepare meeting agendas, take notes, and track follow-up actions for leadership and cross-functional meetings.

Operational Coordination

  • Partner with global executive assistants and the office operations team to ensure smooth coordination of meetings, site visits, and events across regions.

  • Maintain confidentiality and discretion in handling sensitive business information.

Communications and Stakeholder Management

  • Act as a first point of contact and liaison between executives and internal/external stakeholders.

  • Support cross-functional initiatives that drive communication, alignment, and delivery within the North American leadership group.

Special Projects

  • Track progress on key priorities and help ensure accountability on follow-ups.

  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of executive operations and administrative processes.
