Interesting topic... my official title is 'Exec PA' - for a start I hate 'Exec' and much prefer 'Executive', also I work for four different directors so am not technially a 'PA', I consider myself an 'Executive Assistant' but that title is considered too senior to use at our company.  Conversely, I go out of my way to refer to my work as 'admin' when liaising with colleagues so they don't think I am too big for my boots and think of myself as 'director' level - it is difficult because you work with the most senior people with the most confidential subjects but it is still an administrative function which has always had, wrongly in my opinion, dirisory overtones.
