Executive Virtual Assistant at Oriental Press, supporting the President and Managing Director with calendars, confidential correspondence, and international travel.
BahrainWhat I'm looking for
At Oriental Press, I’m the primary point of contact and trusted gatekeeper for the President and Managing Director. I manage calendars, communications, and time-sensitive administrative matters, and prepare confidential business correspondence and reports.
I coordinate international travel end to end, including visas, flights, and hotel bookings. I’ve also supported special projects across the owners’ other businesses, including hotel and real estate operations.
My earlier work includes administrative support at Mashtan Hotel Management and experience in employee relations and HR in the Philippines. I’m now seeking a remote Executive Virtual Assistant role where I can bring my executive support experience to a busy executive or business owner.
