Executive Assistant

We are looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to provide dedicated, high-level support to VistaJet's President of Commercial based in New York City. This is a visible, high-impact role at the center of a fast-moving global commercial organization. You will be the operational backbone for a senior leader with an international remit — managing a complex diary, facilitating client engagements, and ensuring the President can focus on what matters most.

Vista is the world’s leading global business aviation company, providing worldwide business flight services through its network of subsidiaries and a team of over 4,000 experts. A global group headquartered in Dubai, Vista integrates a unique portfolio of companies to offer asset-free services that cover all key aspects of business aviation, including guaranteed and on-demand global flight coverage, subscription and membership solutions, and trading and management services.  

A career at Vista means stepping into an environment where you’re trusted with real autonomy and responsibility from day one. Whether you're keeping our aircraft airworthy, flying our clients across the globe, or working in one of our corporate teams, you’ll move fast, deliver impact quickly, and grow through hands‑on learning and close collaboration within a supportive global community.  

This role is ideal for a polished, proactive EA who thrives in a dynamic environment, brings commercial awareness, and is energized by the pace of a world-class luxury brand.
