Position Purpose 

The Executive Assistant – Global Touring & Producing is responsible for supporting the effectiveness of the Chief Executive by protecting executive capacity, reducing friction, anticipating needs, and ensuring priorities, relationships, and commitments are managed with consistency and care.
This role operates in a high-context, high-trust environment and serves as a practical operating partner to the Chief Executive. The Executive Assistant owns the systems and coordination required to keep the executive office running effectively across calendar management, meeting readiness, travel, communication flow, visitor experience, relationship touchpoints, follow-through, family logistics, and special projects.
The role also works in close partnership with the VP, Market Operations to support the operating rhythm of the Global Touring & Producing organization. Together, they help ensure leadership priorities are translated into action, decisions are followed through, recurring meetings are well prepared, and cross-functional commitments remain visible and on track.
This is not a task-only administrative role. The Executive Assistant is expected to use judgment, operate independently, identify tradeoffs, and own issues through resolution. Success is defined by creating a calm, responsive, and well-coordinated executive environment in which the Chief Executive can focus on the highest-value work and stakeholders experience the office of Global Touring & Producing as thoughtful, prepared, and reliable.
