French term or phrase: "la gestion administrative des dossiers"
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.

Thanks so much! Wow, I was really surprised to learn that they're only talking about filing! I went with "Optimal filing according to different themes linked to our business strategy"
