Gerry Sheridan is a Director of Recruitment at C-Suite Assistants, headquartered in New York, NY.

Gerry grew up in Pelham Manor, NY and moved to NYC after getting her university degree. For over a decade, Gerry worked as a facilitator and copywriter, running ideation sessions and branding workshops for many large companies, including some of the Fortune 500. She helped clients create and position new products, as well as find new ways to market existing products.

During this time, Gerry also wrote comedy and became an award-winning, published playwright whose work has been produced across the US and in the UK. Several years ago, Gerry transitioned into recruiting (while still writing comedy in her spare time), and spent five years at a boutique staffing agency where she discovered she had a knack for recruiting. While at this firm she recruited for all types of positions across various industries, specializing in Executive Assistants, Administrative Assistants, Personal Assistants and House Managers. In this capacity, Gerry worked with both C-level executives and high-net worth individuals, finding them assistants who were the right fit, both in terms of skills and those intangibles that are so important.

Gerry joined C-Suite Assistants in 2016 and has found a professional home working with fellow recruiters who believe in what they do and maintain a high level of integrity and service to both clients and candidates. Gerry’s background in film and theater gives her a behind-the-scenes understanding of what a client in these creative fields is looking for, and the synergy between the business and the creative side of these fields.

Gerry earned her BA in English Literature from Stony Brook University. She lives in Brooklyn Heights, where she plays squash, writes and dotes on her dog.
