Executive Secretary

South HollandHybrid36 hours/week<3months

As an Interim Executive Secretary, you will continuously undertake temporary assignments with various organizations. Think of healthcare institutions, multinationals, government agencies, or innovative scale-ups. You will provide support at the executive level – temporarily, but with maximum impact. You will work on an interim basis, but with the security of a permanent employment contract with a specialized service provider. You combine variety in your work with stability in your career.

You consciously choose dynamism, variety, and the opportunity to constantly learn something new. You are a professional who brings calm, creates an overview, and thinks ahead. No assignment is the same, but your added value is consistent everywhere: you ensure things run smoothly.

What you will do. As a Direct Team Assistant, you will be part of a close-knit group of professionals with a permanent employment contract with a specialized service provider. At the same time, you will work on interim assignments for leading organizations. This means: one employer, multiple environments, always a challenge. In your role, you will bring structure, calm, and overview – precisely where it is desperately needed. You often work at a C-level and think three steps ahead.

You organize, communicate, plan, and connect. Above all: you provide such excellent support that people wonder how they ever functioned without you. You support board members, directors, or senior management in a role that requires overview, reliability, and flexibility. Your duties include:

  • Managing complex calendars and confidential mailboxes
  • Preparing and taking minutes for MT or Board meetings
  • Initiating, coordinating, and monitoring project progress
  • Planning travel, events, appointments
  • Project-based support for management or directors
