Hello from Bertner Advisors!  We are a boutique consulting firm delivering the Wall Street perspective to the top management teams at publicly traded health care companies.  We are also the only firm in the country staffed exclusively by Wall Street health care analysts.  Our small-but-mighty team of Analysts/Advisors develops executives and advances their companies in service of their missions.   

Our team is already recognized by some of the top health care executives in the country for operating at the highest level in our industry.  Nobody does what we do the way we do it.  And we’re upping our game.  

Our elite team of Wall Street Analysts is racing forward at breathtaking speeds in service of our esteemed clients, and we are seeking a seasoned career EA/PA who can take our Advisors to the next level.

  • Are you the most organized person you know?  Intensely detail-oriented?  A perfectionist?

  • Do you drive things to completion?  Do you break through roadblocks to do so?  
  • Are you recognized as the go-to editing and proofing expert among colleagues? 
  • Do you delight in the craft of delivering the perfectly formulated message or document? 
  • Do you have a burning desire to learn new skills?

About the Role
We are seeking an experienced EA/PA who celebrates what makes this powerhouse team so special and fiercely protects it as we grow.  We are looking for someone to join us who loves the core job responsibilities of the EA/PA role and will be fulfilled by growing within the role for the long-term.
 
You are the force behind the scenes, empowering our Advisors to perform at their absolute best with clients.  You build the scaffolding underlying our work, providing our Advisors the luxury of pure focus on delivering the unique counsel that only they can.  You unlock our capacity to deliver even more of our highly sought-after guidance even more effectively, every day.
 

You:
  • are purpose-driven with a passion for process 
  • revel in finding the perfect selection of words and in designing just the right phraseology and sentence structure to articulate your point 
  • are a bona fide grammar nerd (does the Oxford Comma debate keep you awake at night?) 
  • uphold extraordinarily high standards while juggling multiple deliverables in the midst of rapidly switching contexts and ever-shifting priorities
  • are a results-oriented taskmaster who drives deadline discipline with both a sense of urgency and a caring calm 
  • are an independently driven self-starter with an extreme sense of ownership over your work and a dedication to service that borders on obsessive 
  • are an active doer with incredible grit and a bias to action who refuses to rest until the finish line is crossed  
  • respect the sanctity of giving and receiving direct feedback and use it as fuel to improve your company and your own work 
  • constantly scan for ways to remove friction and improve workflow and output  
  • are sensitive to the time pressures your team is under and revel in the art of advancing work through efficient communication that minimizes the need to talk in real-time 
  • thrive in our unique combination of a start-up “tornado” punctuated by significant amounts of quiet solitude to foster thinking and creating 

Scenario:
 
An executive calls our Advisors, his trusted confidants and inner-circle thought partners, about a situation that is exploding publicly.  Our Advisors disappear into a intense, integrated intellectual debate, educating our executive in applying our nuanced craft to navigate his particular set of challenges.  

You: 
  • immediately absorb and contemplate the impact of this situation and what the outcome might require of your team
  • are acutely aware of the context and implications for the kind of support that will allow your Advisors to keep their heads in the game without distraction
  • understand the scheduling challenges these moments cause and leap into action to resolve them
  • collect materials and data relevant to the situation and prepare them for your Advisors to use efficiently
  • identify potential deliverables from the context your Advisors learned on the call and are the first to jump into workflow chains 
  • immediately delve into the first drafts of emails 
  • take 100% ownership of painstakingly tracking and polishing deliverables
  • proofread anything your team is working on with alacrity to keep our work flowing in real-time to our client  
  • predict the needs of your Advisors, providing the individualized TLC each Advisor and/or his loved ones might need while your team is consumed by this client crisis, from delivering food to their desks to taking care of extra errands for their families

Our cyclone-like pace and the sheer degree of rigor that our Advisor Team deploys is not for everyone.  If you are enticed by the challenge of diving into the fray of our team's "always on" work ethic and perfectionist-level quality, we would be delighted to hear from you!
