The Executive Assistant supports EY leaders and teams with calendar management, meeting coordination, travel arrangements, document preparation, expense processing, and general administrative duties. The role typically requires a bachelor’s degree or relevant business administration experience, strong organization skills, professional English communication, and confidence using Microsoft Office and collaboration tools. Candidates are expected to handle confidential information responsibly, manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and work effectively with colleagues and clients across different time zones. Attention to detail, initiative, responsiveness, flexibility, and a service-oriented attitude are important. Experience in an executive support, shared-services, or professional-services environment is advantageous, while willingness to work in a hybrid setup or adjusted schedule may also be expected.

The Philippines offers strong opportunities in business-process services, IT, finance, healthcare, education, tourism, and professional services. Metro Manila, especially Taguig and Makati, is the main corporate center, while Cebu and Davao provide growing alternatives. Filipino culture is generally warm, family-oriented, English-friendly, and relationship-driven; respect, politeness, and adaptability are valued at work. Lifestyle ranges from busy urban living, shopping, and nightlife to beaches, mountains, and island travel. Costs are moderate compared with many international business hubs, although housing and traffic in Manila can be challenging. Foreign employees usually need an employer-sponsored work visa, commonly a 9(g) pre-arranged employment visa, and an Alien Employment Permit; requirements can change, so official government guidance is important. Relocating employees should arrange housing, health insurance, tax advice, and transportation before arrival. Philippine nationals do not need visas to work domestically.
