Job description

Are you an experienced Executive Assistant who enjoys operating at the heart of a growing business?

 

At Forcyd, this is far more than a traditional assistant role. As the trusted right hand to our partners and leadership team, you will help create structure, drive follow-through and ensure the organization operates effectively. You will be involved in commercial, governance and operational matters, working closely with senior stakeholders inside and outside the business. This role offers a unique combination of executive support, stakeholder management and business involvement. You will not only help keep things run smoothly,  but also contribute to the continued professionalization and growth of the firm.

 

About Forcyd

FORCYD is a leading independent consultancy specializing in eDiscovery, Cyber Forensics and Document Review services. Using industry-leading technology, we help law firms, corporations and organizations navigate complex legal, regulatory and digital challenges on both national and international scales. Built from the ground up in a highly specialized market, we have grown by combining expertise, entrepreneurship and a commitment to quality. Our flat organizational structure, collaborative culture and focus on autonomy create an environment where talented professionals can make a real impact.

 

About the role

Your responsibilities are centered around four key pillars:

Executive Support, Planning & Organization

You ensure that our partners and leadership team can focus on what matters most. From managing complex schedules and coordinating high-level meetings to organizing international travel for key events, you create structure and maintain oversight. You are a trusted point of contact who ensures decisions, actions and commitments are followed through.

Business Development Support

You help bring structure to the firm's commercial activities. By coordinating information across teams, maintaining high-quality CRM data and supporting reporting and pipeline oversight, you provide management with the insights needed to make informed decisions. You also help ensure that client follow-ups, relationship management activities and commercial commitments are tracked, coordinated and completed in a timely manner, helping to strengthen long-term client relationships and support the continued growth of the firm.

Corporate Governance & Compliance

You support the organizational backbone of the business. This includes coordinating shareholder, board and management meetings, maintaining corporate records, managing contracts and ensuring important decisions and actions are properly documented and followed up. You also contribute ideas to further strengthen governance processes and ways of working.

Finance Support

You maintain visibility over key operational and financial processes. By monitoring follow-up actions, supporting invoice and payment processes and acting as a liaison between partners, finance and clients when needed, you help ensure the business operates efficiently and professionally.
