Executive Assistant (Direct Hire)

Louisville, KY | Fully Onsite

LHH is hiring an experienced Executive Assistant to support senior leadership within a fast-paced professional services environment. This is a high-impact, client-facing role ideal for someone who is organized, detail-driven, and thrives under deadlines-especially during peak seasons.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage executive calendars, email, and daily priorities
  • Prepare agendas, coordinate meetings, and take detailed notes
  • Deliver high-level client service and communication
  • Organize and maintain physical and digital files
  • Proofread and edit professional communications
  • Coordinate with third parties, including legal contacts
  • Oversee client billing processes and ensure accuracy

What We're Looking For

  • Proven Executive Assistant or high-level administrative experience
  • Background in CPA, financial services, or legal environments strongly preferred
  • Strong data entry, organization, and attention to detail
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Professional presence with strong customer service mindset
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines
  • Proactive, resourceful, and eager to learn

Schedule Expectations

  • Standard: Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM
  • Busy season (Jan-April): Extended weekday hours + occasional Saturdays (never exceeding 60 hours/week)

Compensation & Perks

  • $65,000-$75,000 annually (DOE)
  • Generous 401(k) contributions
  • Performance-based bonuses
  • Full week off for July 4th
  • Half-day Fridays (Memorial Day-August 1st)
  • Volunteer time off + strong team culture
  • Weekly catered meals during peak season + stocked office

Why This Role Stands Out

  • High visibility with leadership
  • Clear path for growth and advancement
  • Collaborative, team-oriented environment
  • Fast-paced role where no two days are the same
