Administrative Support Specialist
Abu Dhabi, Uae
I provide administrative support to the director of the Center for Innovation and Security Solutions at Masdar City. Masdar City is a master planned city designed to be innovative in key areas related to sustainability and technology. Lockheed Martin has set up this facility to be a hub of innovation and collaboration to find creative and new ways to solve security issues: physical, cyber, etc.My position has three parts: executive assistant, office administrator, and event coordinator. As executive assistant, my duties are limited to keeping the director's diary and making travel arrangements. As this is a new office, I am primarily responsible for setting up all new office administration setup, organizing all supplies and arranging basic office support (i.e. housekeeping, maintenance, etc.) As event coordinator, I am responsible for the administrative and hospitality aspects of each event. I help arrange that event goes smoothly from the idea inception, to clean-up.In this new and challenging position I draw from my previous experiences to think of new and creative (innovative) ways to tackle the challenges here at the center and to create innovative, green, and technology driven solutions to historically paper heavy operations.
