Full Description
At GIVENCHY, a beacon of Parisian luxury since 1952, the Executive Assistant role is pivotal in supporting our executive leadership to maintain the brand's prestige in the competitive New York retail landscape. This position ensures seamless operations, allowing leaders to focus on strategic growth, innovation in fashion collections, and expanding our iconic presence in luxury retail. Your contributions will directly impact our ability to deliver exceptional client experiences and uphold our heritage of elegance and sophistication.
As an Executive Assistant, your day-to-day involves meticulously managing executive calendars, scheduling high-stakes meetings with global partners, vendors, and internal teams across design, marketing, and sales departments. You will handle confidential correspondence, draft executive communications, and prepare detailed reports on retail performance metrics like sales targets and inventory turnover. Weekly tasks include coordinating travel itineraries for fashion weeks and business trips, organizing executive presentations with data visualizations using tools like PowerPoint and Excel, and tracking project deliverables for store openings or product launches. Monthly, you will reconcile expenses, assist in budgeting for retail operations, and facilitate cross-departmental briefings to align on key performance indicators such as customer satisfaction scores and revenue growth. Expect to collaborate closely with creative directors, merchandising teams, and external stakeholders, occasionally leading small administrative projects that enhance operational efficiency.
Candidates must possess a bachelor's degree in business administration, fashion management, or a related field, with at least 5 years of progressive experience as an executive assistant in luxury retail or high-end fashion. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, Google Workspace, CRM systems like Salesforce, and scheduling tools such as Calendly is essential. Familiarity with the luxury goods industry, including knowledge of supply chain logistics and retail operations in New York, is required. Strong organizational skills with the ability to handle sensitive information discreetly are non-negotiable.
Success in this role demands exceptional organizational prowess, advanced communication skills for interacting with C-suite executives and VIP clients, and impeccable attention to detail. You should exhibit proactive problem-solving, adaptability in fast-paced environments, and cultural sensitivity for international collaborations. Technical fluency in digital tools complements soft skills like diplomacy, time management, and a passion for luxury fashion that aligns with GIVENCHY's sophisticated ethos.
GIVENCHY, under LVMH, embodies timeless elegance and avant-garde style, with a mission to redefine luxury through innovative designs and unparalleled craftsmanship. Our New York office thrives in a dynamic, collaborative environment where creative minds unite with retail experts. The culture fosters innovation, inclusivity, and professional excellence, offering a stylish workspace in the heart of Manhattan's fashion district that celebrates diversity and work-life harmony.
We offer competitive compensation commensurate with experience, as salary details are not specified but aligned with industry standards for luxury retail executives.

Additional perks feature flexible hybrid scheduling, wellness programs, tuition reimbursement, and performance-based bonuses tied to retail achievements.
