What's the difference between an Administrative Assistant and an Executive Admin. Asst.?
Asked by Freegrrl
I know that, in general, Exec. Admins usually report to an officer of the company, or someone in upper management. But what additional duties might they have that an Admin Asst doesn't?

A:
Best Answer:
Essentially, one's an upper clerical job with a nice title, and one's a semi-professional job requiring much more of a managerial skill set. An AA does what a manger says, and an EA will act as the liason between the manager and the REAL boss.

A:
It really varies. The main difference is who you work for i.e. Executive or Non-Executive. Your boss will determine your duties.
