The Episcopal Diocese of Olympia seeks an Executive Assistant (EA) to the bishop. The EA to the bishop—based in Seattle—supports the bishop’s ministry and the mission of the diocese by relieving the bishop of routine administrative duties/executive support tasks to enable and enhance the bishop’s ministry to the diocese. Furthermore, the EA is charged with the care and trust of the bishop and staff through maintaining high levels of confidentiality and discretion.

The EA is often the point of first contact for clergy, staff, other professionals, visitors, and vendors, with a commitment to providing an increased level of professionalism and respect for the office of the bishop. Attention to shifting priorities and details is crucial, as is the ability to prioritize work and maintain order without direct supervision. The EA must enjoy the administrative challenges of supporting a diocese of diverse people and programs and be committed to good stewardship of resources whenever practical and possible. The ability to interact with local and satellite staff, and remain flexible, proactive, resourceful, calm and efficient is vital.
