Executive Assistant Wanted !!!
We're looking for the person who actually runs the company while the CEO takes the credit.
The Executive Assistant.
The calendar wizard. The chaos coordinator. The professional mind-reader. The person who somehow knows where everyone needs to be, what everyone forgot, and what problem is about to happen before it happens.
Without them? The executives would probably be looking for a meeting that started 20 minutes ago while boarding the wrong flight.
And that's where you come in.
Marathon Underground has spent over 40 years building Canada's infrastructure from the ground up.
