A team assistant provides help with administrative duties around the office so the rest of the team can focus their attention on more complex project tasks. As a team assistant, you schedule appointments, organize team meetings, prepare agendas and itineraries, book meals and travel arrangements, handle record keeping and documentation, and make sure a project stays on budget. This is an entry-level job with no formal qualifications or specific experience required. Employers often prefer you to have a high school diploma or GED certificate, but an associate degree in business or administrative assisting can help your career prospects. You need excellent organizational skills to succeed in this job.
