Hiring a Business Assistant

WHAT IS A BUSINESS ASSISTANT?

A business assistant typically works closely alongside the director and management team, attending key meetings and overseeing general business activity. More often than not, they’ll be the right-hand person to the director and will manage key projects, offer valuable business insights and assist with budget management and reporting.

Depending on the requirements of the role, a business assistant may also perform some personal assistant duties, including diary management and extensive travel and meeting co-ordination. As a flexible and confident business leader, they will likely provide line management to the administration and operations managers , conducting staff appraisals, performance issues and task delegation.

BUSINESS ASSISTANT RECRUITMENT

The responsibilities from one business assistant to another may vary significantly depending on the nature and size of the organisation. For this reason, it’s crucial to carefully consider a candidate’s professional background alongside their potential cultural fit when looking for a business assistant to hire. Our expert consultants will work closely with you to determine what type of business assistant your business needs, meeting with you to develop a strong understanding the role, what you’re looking for and the necessary cultural fit.

FINDING THE RIGHT BUSINESS ASSISTANT CANDIDATE

At Tiger, our assessment of business assistant candidates will cover their professional background, experience and soft skills, plus their technical capabilities and MS Office skillset. We’ll look at their managerial experience, their leadership style, and pose behavioural questions around initiative and proactivity. A successful candidate will be confident in working alongside board-level executives and partners, have the flexibility to take on a diverse number of tasks and possess a high level of initiative, strong project management and organisational skills.

When recruiting for a business assistant, we undertake a stringent screening process, assessing the skillset and experience of candidates and undertaking reference checks to ensure they are the right fit for your business. Whether the need is temporary or long-term , we provide a comprehensive picture of any potential business assistant employees.
