Executive Assistant professionals in Portland, Maine rarely find a position with this combination of leadership exposure, organizational impact, and exceptional benefits. Pro Search is partnering with a respected membership-based organization to identify a highly organized professional with experience in executive support, administrative assistance, office administration, calendar management, invoicing, accounts receivable, bookkeeping, and operations coordination.
This is far more than a traditional Executive Assistant role. As a trusted partner to the President & CEO, you'll help drive the day-to-day success of the organization while serving as a key resource for leadership, staff, members, vendors, and community stakeholders. You'll have a direct hand in keeping operations running smoothly, supporting strategic priorities, and ensuring a professional, responsive experience for everyone connected to the organization.
This position is ideal for an Executive Assistant, Office Manager, Chief of Staff, Administrative Coordinator, Business Operations Coordinator, or Office Administrator who enjoys balancing executive support, financial administration, operational coordination, and relationship management.

- Work directly with the President & CEO as a trusted partner
- Influence key operational priorities across the organization
- Join a collaborative, mission-driven team with exceptional benefits
If you enjoy being the person who keeps everything organized, moving forward, and operating at a high level, you'll thrive in this position.
