Job Description

Impact. Influence. Purpose.

* Be the force behind meaningful leadership *

Are you a highly organized, proactive professional who thrives in fast-paced environments and loves being at the center of meaningful work? This is more than an administrative role—it’s a chance to partner with executive leadership to shape programs that directly impact lives.

At LifeScape, our mission is rooted in person-centered care, innovation, and empowering individuals to live their fullest lives. As the Executive Assistant to the Vice President of Residential & Education Services, you’ll play a critical role in keeping operations running smoothly while contributing to strategic initiatives that matter.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a high-visibility, high-impact position where your work directly supports executive decision-making, program success, and organizational excellence. You won’t just manage calendars—you’ll help drive priorities, streamline operations, and keep big-picture goals on track.

What You’ll Do: 

Executive & Operational Partnership

  • Own and optimize a dynamic executive calendar—anticipating needs and prioritizing what matters most
  • Coordinate high-level meetings from start to finish: agendas, materials, logistics, and follow-through
  • Prepare polished reports, presentations, and communications that reflect professionalism and clarity
  • Serve as a trusted point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
  • Track priorities, deadlines, and deliverables—ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
  • Anticipate challenges and resolve issues with confidence and discretion

Project & Strategic Support

  • Partner on cross-functional initiatives that advance Residential & Education Services
  • Track and report key data tied to operations, quality improvement, and infection prevention
  • Conduct research and synthesize insights to support leadership decisions
  • Contribute to communications and marketing efforts that highlight program impact

Ready to Make an Impact?

If you’re looking for a role where your expertise, initiative, and professionalism truly matter—where you can contribute to something bigger than yourself—this is your opportunity!
