  • Prague

Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you've come to the right place.

YOUR IMPACT

You'll build meaningful, collaborative relationships with your teammates and the colleagues who depend on your administrative support.

Whether it's managing a full calendar, scheduling meetings across various time zones, or arranging and coordinating complex travel logistics, you'll apply your multitasking, organizational, and decision-making skills to fulfill critical administrative and logistical requests.

At McKinsey, we have three different assistant roles: executive, team, and relief. As an executive assistant, you will provide long-term support for several executive-level colleagues, learning their preferences and developing close working relationships. As a team assistant, you will support client service teams for the duration of their client engagements from one to 12+ months, coordinating their working style and managing multiple schedules. Finally, as a relief executive assistant, you will provide backup cover for absent assistants & support consultants for a short period of time, which gives you the opportunity to expand your network quickly and gain exposure to different regions, industries, and functions in which McKinsey operates. During the recruiting process, we'll work together with you to align your skills and experience with one of these positions.

We're in search of individuals who bring strong attention to detail and problem-solving abilities, thriving in a team-oriented and inclusive environment. Emotional intelligence is a key quality we deeply value. Your ability to engage and respond appropriately will be critical in maintaining relationships with executive-level colleagues. This role is an excellent opportunity for professionals with experience in customer service, corporate administration, client support, or those currently in assistant roles who want to further develop their knowledge and ability. We offer extensive training to help you deepen your skills and grow your expertise.
