How do I hire a Legal Administrative Assistant? Job Summary:
Are you a born organizer? Do you keep your cool under pressure? Do you have experience supporting a high-level executive? And do you have a soft spot for Disney? If you're nodding your head, then an Executive Support Professional position at Disney Channel at The Walt Disney Company might be right for you.
Our Executive Support Professionals are highly-respected because their skills are essential to the success of the company. You'd be part of a dynamic, fast-paced legal affairs team that works to create the amazing children's programing that kids love and would work with some of the most creative, intelligent people in the business. Join us – apply today!
This position currently reports to and supports Principal Counsel, Legal Affairs and Counsel, Legal Affairs.
Responsibilities:
You would be responsible for the day-to-day workings of the leader(s) you support. You'd support the legal affairs team that provides the legal support that is the lifeblood of the television programs we make at Disney Channel, Disney XD, and Disney Junior. It goes without saying that there will be expense reports, travel planning, hundreds of phone messages and endless calendar jockeying, but this job is very much about people, about forming strong relationships with your leaders and co-workers, and about understanding how to leverage the human capital within the Disney enterprise to help your executive(s) flourish. As the ''face'' of your executive(s) within The Walt Disney Company, your professionalism, loyalty and attitude are a reflection of the office, and as such, are a critical component to its success. Every day as an Executive Support Professional is different! On any given day you might:
• Review your leader's schedule to build-in time for things like thinking, and getting to/from meetings in our sprawling campus;
• Understand the day's priorities so you can be smart about how you direct phone calls;
• Schedule conference rooms, meetings and video chats;
• Be ready to throw the entire schedule out the door when an emergency comes up, then pick it up again when the dust settles;
• Read relevant newspapers and trade journals so you understand the mission of the office;
• Draft letters and emails on behalf of your leaders;
• Act as ''casual buyer'' of all office supplies for the department, and manage purchase orders and vendor contracts;
• Prepare regular reports and summaries -- you'll have tasks that you ''own'' completely;
• Collaborate on projects by conducting research, writing and fact-checking;
• Assist with on-boarding new employees – you'll be the ''friendly face'' that newbies count on to answer all their questions, including many who are quite senior in the organization;
• Mentor and train other support professionals in hard skills like computer programs, and soft skills like teamwork;
• Manage and distribute important documents that are necessary for the programs you love to be created.
Basic Qualifications:
• At least 5 years supporting a Director or above and/or equivalent experience;
• Sharp written and verbal communication skills, including clean grammar and a robust vocabulary;
• Ability to multi-task and prioritize deadlines/deliverables;
• Strong proficiency with all types of computers, phones and office equipment;
• Mastery of Microsoft Office programs, good skills in SAP, Sharepoint and Concur;
• A calm head and steady hand to deal with the unexpected;
• Confidence to learn new programs when necessary;
• Complete reliability handling confidential information;
• Desire to truly be helpful to your leaders and co-workers, to go the extra mile without being asked, to build solid inter and intra-team relationships;
• Some flexibility in your schedule – we value work/life balance, but in a pinch, a bit more time is needed;
• Very strong organizational skills and attention to detail; and
• A professional demeanor, positive outlook and a proactive, can-do attitude.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Good knowledge of the electronic signature program for contracts, DocuSign;
• Experience working in a large publicly-traded company; and
• Experience working in a studio legal or business affairs department.
Required Education
• High school degree
Preferred Education
