Role Overview

The Filing Assistant will be responsible for the end-to-end management of our filing systems — both physical and digital — across multiple departments and entities. This role requires someone exceptionally organized, consistent, and process-oriented, who can ensure that every document is named, saved, retrieved, and archived according to firm-wide protocols.
