Guess who is asked to find the hottest restaurant tables or tickets in town. In short, the Executive Assistant role can be hard!

For everyone that arrived for the seminar I was able to offer them a safe and calm environment. We also organised taxis for people to get across London and offered them free use of our restaurant if they needed to stay longer than planned.

If I am told that I should have it in the next few weeks, or can expect to receive it in a couple of months, that doesn’t really help me with my follow up as it is not a definite date. I can only guess when I might get it. I would prefer they say you will have it by March 4th. That I can track. Dates are important.
