01 / the role

What is a fractional EA?.

What Fractional EAs own, what they don't, and where they sit in the team.

A fractional EA provides senior executive assistant support on a part-time basis, typically 10-25 hours per week. Companies hire a fractional EA to get high-level administrative support without the commitment - or the £45k+ salary - of a full-time hire.

The same role is sometimes advertised as a fractional PA. In practice the work is identical: diary, inbox, travel and stakeholder coordination, delivered by one senior assistant working across 2-4 concurrent clients.
