French term

"la gestion administrative des dossiers"

French to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Sorry, this may be a very simple question. I'm translating a job announcement for an "Assistant(e) du PDG), who will have various responsibilities (managing his schedule, preparing budget statements, etc.)

One of the responsibilities is "la gestion administrative des dossiers du PDG dans un souci d'organisation optimale des dossiers, sur des thématiques variées liées à la stratégie d'entreprise;"

Not sure how to translate "dossiers" here. Is it just projects? FYI this is a luxury wine company.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): writeaway

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

ps 'gestion administrative' makes it sound more complicated than it is, but filing is admin work...simple as.
Julie Barber Mar 7, 2008:
commonly known in the world of PA's like myself as FILING! you could call it document management if you want to be plush....but it's filing!

administration/management of files

in this context, it more than likely refers to an assistant who can administer/manage the files
