Rebecca Schuessler

At this multi-national company, I supported the General Counsel, the Chief Commercial Officer & Head of Corporate Development, the EVPs of Operations, Trading, and Chartering and their respective departments. This included basic daily administrative duties, as well as heavy calendar management, legal document drafting, coordinating extensive international travel arrangements (visas, itineraries, expenses), meanwhile building strong relationships within and outside of the company.

(SSS, AMC Networks, Loews Regency Hotel, BPC Parks Conservancy, Dentatus, Land-Air) Working in a variety of business settings required quick adaptation to processes and systems. It has helped me to understand myself better, and thereby able to recognize the environments and positions in which I will thrive.

Working with the Ad Sales & Marketing teams I created decks for presentations to potential investors, coordinated events on site as well as off, i.e. SXSW, IFC Upfront at Roseland Ballroom, AMC Network’s building. Ad hoc projects were my norm, requiring me to think on my feet, be flexible, and prioritize. It was a very fast-paced, creative and fulfilling role.

At this luxury boutique hotel I helped with day-to-day activities, as well as on many ad hoc projects, while supporting the Sales and Marketing team (site preparation, managing website content, collateral/supply inventory and purchasing, and presentations).

I was part of a small team working on the development and implementation of specialized music-editing software, which required, among other things, a very high level of attention to detail and meticulous recordkeeping.

I was responsible for the daily running and success of a variety of stores. I also assisted in interviewing, training, and recruitment.

As the main point of contact for customers, executives, internal employees and consultants I had involvement in a variety of arenas: new hire orientation, payroll submission, accounts payable, customer invoicing, and travel arrangement. I managed our office maintenance, supply inventory and ordering, assisted in procuring hardware/software for internal staff and technical consultants as well as scheduled technical resources.
