MD Personal Assistant at Zetech Oil Services Company

PAs should be capable of competently managing the office in their manager’s absence. They should be confident enough to delegate upwards to their manager's direct reports in order to effectively manage their manager's time and workload. Maintaining confidentiality is a fundamental requirement for PAs because ultimately, building a strategic relationship with their manager is only possible if their manager trusts them enough to keep them in the loop about what is going on in the business.
