Yes, having one in your workplace is quite nice. There's a good reason why secretaries/admin assistants exist, and it's this: Would you rather pay a secretary $30-50k per year to do others' administrative, clerical, and scheduling tasks, or would you rather make your executives who you're paying six to seven figures do it all themselves, cutting into their time for the much more valuable work you hired them to do? It's expensive to employ a person just for the purpose of doing clerical work for everyone else, but what's more expensive is the productivity hit you take when you force all your senior employees and officers to do it themselves. A lot of companies have forgotten this in their misguided attempts to improve the bottom line by reducing headcount.
