SR. ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT

WASHINGTON, DC | FULL-TIME | HYBRID

The Senior Administrative Assistant provides high-quality administrative support to the Managing Director and members of the Program leadership team. As a core member of the Program team, this role provides the administrative foundation that lets senior leaders stay focused on OES's lifesaving work, ensuring schedules, travel, expenses, and day-to-day logistics run smoothly across a busy, global, fast-moving team. The role focuses on high-quality administrative support rather than direct program or project management, with scheduling, travel, expenses, and administrative coordination at the core of the position.

The ideal candidate thrives in an early-stage environment where priorities move quickly, and systems are still being built. They are highly organized, responsive, and detail-oriented, with strong judgment, a bias toward action, and the ability to manage competing priorities with limited oversight. They take ownership of the details, anticipate needs, solve problems independently, and create structure where it does not yet exist.

This position is being managed by Hawthorne Lane. Interested candidates should contact Meghan Hogle at meghan@hawthornelane.com for additional information and application instructions.
