Executive Assistant

Executive / Project Assistant – World-Class Education Project (Ahmedabad)

We are currently in the foundation phase of building a world-class, education-first school.

This is a long-term institution-building project, and not a routine administrative setup. The work involves close coordination with leading architects, senior academicians, and professionals with global exposure, as we shape the school from the ground up.

We are looking for a sharp, dependable assistant to support the day-to-day execution and coordination, allowing leadership to focus on direction, decisions, and quality.

This is a hands-on, working role, not a theoretical or purely clerical position.

Role Overview (Day-to-Day Responsibilities)

• Coordinating calls, meetings, schedules, and follow-ups

• Managing emails, documents, drafts, and version control

• Tracking tasks across academics, architects, consultants, and vendors

• Preparing notes, summaries, and action lists

• Following up persistently until tasks are closed

• Basic research and information compilation as required

• Supporting daily execution during the school’s foundation phase

This role requires ownership, clarity, and discipline, not passive assistance.

Global Orientation & Exposure (Important)

As this project is being developed to global standards, the role will involve interaction with high-calibre professionals, both Indian and international.

We are therefore looking for someone who:

• Is comfortable working in a global-quality professional environment

• Communicates clearly and confidently across cultures

• Has awareness of, or curiosity about, international standards, global education contexts, and professional etiquette

• Is not intimidated by quality, scale, or ambition

International exposure through work, study, travel, or regular interaction with global teams is valued, but not mandatory. What matters most is maturity, openness, and the ability to operate comfortably in a world-class ecosystem.

Who This Role Is For

• Organised, reliable, and detail-oriented individuals

• Strong written and spoken communication skills

• Ability to handle multiple moving parts calmly

• Comfortable working independently once briefed

• High respect for professionalism

Prior experience in education, projects, administration, or coordination is helpful, but attitude, judgement, and reliability matter more than titles.

What This Role Is NOT

• Not a teaching role

• Not a consulting role

• Not a senior leadership role

• Not suitable for someone seeking only strategy or creative work

This is a foundation-support role — practical, demanding, and critical.

Work Structure

• Full-time preferred

• Part-time or hybrid may be considered for the right candidate

• Role will evolve as the school project progresses
