Job Description

MGA Entertainment is seeking an exceptionally bright, highly organized, multi-tasking, and self-directed Executive Assistant to support the Executive Vice President of Operations. This role requires a proactive partner who consistently anticipates needs, manages complex operational workflows, and ensures the EVP remains focused on high-impact priorities. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment, demonstrates strong judgment, and acts as a stabilizing force across the organization.

The most successful candidate will be a strong communicator (written and verbal), able to synthesize information quickly, manage multiple simultaneous priorities, and take effective action without needing full context.
