Project Secretary and multilingual Executive Assistant blending document control, interpretation, and project coordination for smooth delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Project Secretary and Executive Assistant based in Ho Chi Minh City, supporting international projects through executive reception, meeting support, and disciplined project documentation. I’m proactive about following up on implementation, keeping stakeholders aligned, and ensuring decisions translate into action.
In recent roles, I’ve coordinated project office operations and administrative workflows, including scheduling and mobilizing transport, booking flights and hotels, and managing visa and work permit applications. I also handle executive support tasks like taking minutes of BOD meetings and preparing document submissions for Project Director’s approval.
I bring strong cross-functional capability across document control and communication: receiving and transferring as-built drawings, material input certificates, NCRs, and construction-related records, while supporting teams with diaries, payment requests, and coordination with subcontractors. Alongside that, I use translation and interpretation to bridge technical, legal, and business contexts in meetings.
My background also includes teaching and academic counseling as a Lecturer of English, plus professional work across construction and renewable energy settings. I’m comfortable working with Microsoft Office tools and productivity platforms, and I’m ready to bring structured, multilingual support to teams that need clarity, responsiveness, and reliable execution.
