• Assist supervisors with day to day management of recording projects.

About you:
• Prior assistant experience including answering phones, booking travel and handling T&E.
• Highly organized, detail oriented, and resourceful.
• Rigorous about proofing your own work (and occasionally the work of others!)
• Calm under pressure.
• Hard worker for whom no task is too small.
• Excellent communication skills.
• Comfortable with spreadsheets, numbers and math.
• Self-motivated and able to complete tasks independently.
• Microsoft Word, Excel and Google Suite competent.
