*Administrative Associate (10054)
Description
''There is no other group of people with whom I'd rather work.''
We hear this refrain often at the Corporate Executive Board (CEB), voted as one of Washington, DC's Best Places to Work for 2001in Washingtonian Magazine. We are proud of the quality of our staff and are looking to add talented, dynamic people to our (growing) ranks. In September 2002 CEB made Fortune's list of 100 Fastest Growing Companies in the US; we also ranked # 3 on Business Week's list of Hot Growth Companies for 2002. And, consistent with the staff comment above, we feel the primary driver behind these accolades (and the underlying business achievements) is the quality of the staff we hire and develop over time.
The Corporate Executive Board (NASDAQ: EXBD) is a leading provider of best practices research and executive education, focusing on corporate strategy, operations, and general management issues. Our membership base consists of a network of more than 10,000 senior leaders at over 1,800 blue-chip companies across the globe, including over 70% of the Fortune 500.

At the Corporate Executive Board we offer very competitive benefits, including 401(k) plan with match, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Emergency Back-Up day care, a ''dress for your day'' work environment and the opportunity to be surrounded by the best and brightest in Washington, DC. We are headquartered on Pennsylvania Ave., (four blocks from the White House) and have a small, but growing, office in London.
