EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT AT ARCHITRAVE | EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT JOBS IN LAGOS

About Company:

Architrave is a design and build company dedicated to the development of the environment.

Job Description:

We are seeking a high-caliber Executive Assistant to serve as the primary strategic support to the CEO in Ikoyi, Lagos. This is not a traditional secretarial role; it is a partnership designed for a mature, proactive professional who can act as both a "Gatekeeper" (protecting the CEO's time) and a "Gateway" (facilitating high-value business opportunities).

Reporting directly to the CEO, you will manage a complex ecosystem of internal staff, independent consultants, and international contractors. If you have an interest in Architecture and Construction and possess the "emotional intelligence" to sense environmental shifts before they become issues, you will thrive as the CEO’s right hand.

Requirements:

1. Executive Optimization & Time Engineering

• Calendar Architecture: Manage an active calendar of appointments, ensuring the CEO’s time is strictly aligned with the organization's strategic priorities.

• Global Mobility: Arrange detailed domestic and international travel plans, including comprehensive itineraries, agendas, and visa logistics.

• Correspondence Mastery: Compose and prepare high-level, often confidential, correspondence and documents for board-level meetings and presentations.

2. Liaison & Stakeholder Management

• Strategic Gatekeeping: Serve as the primary point of contact for existing and prospective clients, contractors, and staff, ensuring projects remain on track without direct CEO intervention.

• Executive Outreach: Coordinate external relations efforts and oversee special projects that have a direct organizational impact.

• Environmental Intelligence: Act as a "barometer," keeping the CEO informed of internal and external issues, trends, and office sentiment.

3. Project Oversight & Deliverables

• Hands-on Execution: Successfully complete critical aspects of deliverables, including drafting complex acknowledgement letters and personal correspondence that facilitate leadership efficiency.

• Project Tracking: Monitor and follow through on a variety of special projects, many involving sensitive deadlines and conflicting needs.

• Digital Proficiency: Utilize the full MS Office suite, Adobe Acrobat, and social media platforms to maintain the CEO’s professional presence and project documentation.

Qualifications and Skills:

Professional Profile

• Education: Bachelor’s degree is required.

• Experience: 2–3 years of experience in a similar role specifically supporting C-Level Executives.

• Sector Interest: Demonstrated experience or strong interest in Construction, Architecture, or Business Development.

• Technical Stack: Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Adobe Acrobat, and Social Media management.

Core Competencies

• Maturity & Initiative: The ability to build crucial relationships and make sound judgments without constant supervision.

• Prioritization: Exceptional ability to handle conflicting needs expeditiously and proactively.

• Confidentiality: A proven track record of handling sensitive business information with absolute discretion.
