Management Assistant

Who are you?

You are a strong communicator and like to be in contact with people at different levels of an organization. Through your strong personal and administrative skills you are experienced in building meaningful personal relationships, manage your tasks thoroughly and deliver quick results. You have excellent organizational skills, remain calm under pressure and are good at multi-tasking. You have the confidenceto take important decisions independently.
In order to thrive in a challenging and demanding executive environment, you are hardworking, discrete and proactive. You continuously look for new ways to lend support or make improvements to benefit your company. You have a positive attitude and always go the extra mile for your colleagues. Management assistants also need to be flexibleto be able to deal with unexpected tasks.

Who are we?

Despite being scattered across different departments and locations, the delaware support team is a close-knit community of more than 100 people. We provide delaware with locally-based support in an international context. We are a high-impact team and act as a sparring partner of the business.

Not only do we enable the work that our business units do, our suggestions and initiatives to improve delaware’s way of working are highly valued as well. As the delaware business landscape continues to grow, so does our support team. Within this tight community, the management assistants offer their administrative experience to the delaware partners and act as the supporting right hand of these executives.

Just so you know: delaware has its offices in Antwerp, Ghent, Kortrijk, Lummen, Liège and Wavre, but the headquarters of the support team are located in Kortrijk. You normally work four days per week from our main office there (during lockdown you are able to work fulltime from home), while also enjoying all the benefits of working in an international consultancy firm (e.g. flexible hours, working from home, challenging assignments and room to grow in your function).
