1 CEO, 2 VPs, 2 Controllers, 1 CFO
I support our MD. However, on top of that I do absolutely everything else in the office, including managing the H&S system, creating risk assessments for events etc. I'm a fire warden and first aider. I support on new business, book taxis for people, arrange passes for visitors etc etc. Manage meeting rooms/catering etc. Support with marketing. My role has expanded continuously with no discussion!
This is how they save money. They have one person do multiple jobs. That is why I always ask for more a year, if I’m interviewing for a position because job descriptions change all the time; and at least your getting paid for it.
Three attorneys and a paralegal. I am the only legal assistant for our office. Everyone works well together, and they are all respectful of what I do.
3 pax ( CFO, CHRO, VP)
My peer's EA supporting 4 (CFO, MD Sales, VP Sales Ops, and Legal Counsel )
So yeah, it's commonly now to support more than 1 pax. Gone are the days for 1 : 1 supporting.
I miss it so much haaa
I have two managers I report to. That often feels like a lot for me. I can't imagine reporting to four managers. Do you have time to breathe?
Mentor
Currently 3 big execs and another 7 low level who really just want help with expenses.
I had 5 execs at my last job. 1 high level and the rest were lower level. My current job I support the whole group along with one other person. It’s like 225 people but I’m doing more project and client based work vs calendar/ expenses/ travel etc. so it is very different.
