What the job involves
- Dropbox is seeking a detail oriented Administrative Coordinator for the Office of the CEO. This person will support the Chief of Staff to the CEO and partner with his Executive Business Partner to support his office as a whole
- Our Admins are the glue that holds everything together - from calendaring and travel to team support, you will have the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of confidential and strategic tasks
- You’ll be working in a fast-paced environment with passionate team members who are focused on quality and execution
- Strategically maintain sensitive information and complex calendars in a rapidly changing environment, requiring coordination with both internal and external executives and assistants
- Set up domestic and international travel arrangements
- Plan and execute on-site and off-site meetings, dinners, and events
- Prepare monthly expense reports for leads and coordinate special projects as needed
- Serve as the face of Dropbox on behalf of your leads and act as a liaison, building great relationships with internal stakeholders and external contacts
Our take
Dropbox started by helping people bring together their files in one central place. The contents of these folders are synchronised to Dropbox's servers along with other computers and devices where the user has installed Dropbox, keeping the same files up-to-date across all devices.
Nowadays, there are lots of competing companies in cloud storage, and some with better distribution (e.g. Google and Apple). This explains why Dropbox is making a big push to reinvent itself after a fairly disappointing run since its IPO in 2018. The new Dropbox turns folders into "Spaces", which are collaboration hubs for teams, complete with comment streams, artificial intelligence tools and integrations into services such as Slack.
The company continues to build out its offerings through acquisitions, such as that of Formswift, bolstering its end-to-end agreement workflow capabilities. Indeed, It's very clear that Dropbox is trying to make a big move from being just a storage company. This seems to be a necessary move given the competitive nature of the industry it is operating within.
