Role Dimensions:

  • The Executive Assistant acts as a key enabler of PIU’s Country Leadership and Management Teams, allowing senior managers to focus on their substantive work, by relieving them of administrative details.

  • Good communications and public relations skills; especially an ability to communicate clearly and assertively on occasion
