Executive Assistant Job Description MGA Entertainment is seeking an exceptionally bright, highly organized, multi‑tasking, and self‑directed Executive Assistant to support the Executive Vice President of Operations. This role requires a proactive partner who consistently anticipates needs, manages complex operational workflows, and ensures the EVP remains focused on high‑impact priorities. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast‑paced, high‑expectation environment, demonstrates strong judgment, and acts as a stabilizing force across the organization.
