The ideal candidate must exhibit a high level of professionalism, discretion, and confidentiality when handling sensitive information and interacting with executives, clients, and staff. This role requires flexibility to begin work at 7:30 a.m. and stay later if projects or urgent priorities require additional attention, though such situations are expected to be occasional and communicated upfront. The individual should possess management experience, as they will be responsible for overseeing two front desk employees, auditing timesheets, conducting performance reviews, and delegating tasks as necessary to ensure operational efficiency. Additionally, the candidate should be prepared to travel occasionally to accompany the COO to meetings or tradeshows in the Midwest region, supporting key events and business development efforts. The candidate must demonstrate initiative, proactivity, and confidence in their approach while getting to know the COO's preferences and work style—for example, determining if the COO prefers direct contact or independent handling of tasks. Strong communication and organizational skills, alongside advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and familiarity with CRM tools, are essential. Prior experience in legal contract administration or supporting executive leadership is highly preferred. This role also requires someone who can autonomously anticipate needs and resolve challenges swiftly in a dynamic environment.
