Brown & Brown is seeking an Executive Assistant to join our growing team in Houston, TX.

Brown & Brown Insurance is looking for a sharp, highly organized Executive Assistant to support the Profit Center Leader at our Houston, TX office.

• Track projects, milestones, licenses, certifications, expenses, and budgets
• Prepare and analyze reports, expense documentation, and financial records with strict accuracy and confidentiality
• Manage office hospitality and employee appreciation initiatives
• Independently juggle competing priorities and special projects, exercising sound judgment throughout
