We are looking for a polished, energetic, and extremely friendly Receptionist/Executive Assistant to find a long-term home on our Office Management team. Our ideal hire is someone who can seamlessly handle all the core parts of an admin role (things like managing complex calendars, prepping for meetings, and drafting correspondence), alongside everything that comes along with working at the front desk of our global headquarters in Midtown Manhattan. In these ever-changing times, our Office Management team is a cornerstone of both our Work-From-Home and our Return-To-Office plans.
Our ideal candidate is someone with a hospitality mindset who thrives in a fast-paced environment. Exceptional organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills are essential, as are independence, integrity, and discretion. For this person, no task is too small or, over time, too large. Members of PDT's Office Management team are collaborative, flexible, and excellent multi-taskers.
Why join us? PDT Partners has a stellar 25+ year track record and a reputation for excellence. Our goal is to be the best quantitative investment manager in the world - measured by the quality of our products, not their size. PDT’s very high employee-retention rate speaks for itself. Our people are intellectually extraordinary and our community is close-knit, down-to-earth, and diverse.
In-person expectations: For now, the team works in-person in the office on a rotating basis. We expect this candidate to be willing and able to work in-person at our Midtown office as well. We take numerous measures to ensure that the work environment is as safe as possible for all employees (limited capacity). For now, no external guests are allowed.
