@laurapolo
Executive Assistant specializing in COO support, calendar management, and operational coordination.
What I'm looking for
I’m an organized and proactive Executive Assistant with over six years of experience supporting senior leaders in fast-moving, multicultural environments. I genuinely enjoy helping executives stay on top of their day-to-day—managing busy calendars, coordinating meetings across time zones, preparing documents, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. Bilingual in Spanish and English, I communicate clearly, anticipate needs, and adapt quickly to keep operations running smoothly.
In my most recent role as Executive Assistant to the COO at Betterwho, I managed complex calendars, coordinated stakeholders, and prepared reports, presentations, and meeting minutes with action item follow-ups. I also implemented organizational systems that improved operational efficiency and contributed to occupancy goals, while supporting project management through research and progress tracking. Before that, I strengthened customer-facing and operational foundations as a Customer Service Representative at Medtronic and an Assistant Contact Center Manager at Teleperformance, handling documentation, reports, budgets, returns/credits, and process improvements through research and analysis.
