Why This Role Exists

We don’t need a typical administrative assistant.

We need someone who ensures the Co-Founder’s day runs smoothly, operations stay on track, and nothing falls through the cracks.

This role sits at the center of leadership support, operational efficiency, and stakeholder communication—directly impacting decision-making, team alignment, and business execution.

What You’ll Be Responsible For (Outcomes)

You manage and optimize the CEO’s calendar
→ Priorities, meetings, and deadlines are coordinated efficiently and without conflicts

You act as a trusted point of contact
→ Internal teams and external stakeholders experience clear, professional, and timely communication

You ensure follow-through on deliverables
→ Tasks are tracked, deadlines are met, and nothing is overlooked

You prepare, review, and manage critical documents
→ Agreements, reports, and internal communications are accurate, organized, and ready when needed

You streamline operations and research proactively
→ Information is gathered, organized, and presented to support decision-making

You coordinate meetings and communications
→ Appointments, confirmations, and updates are handled without delays

You handle sensitive information responsibly
→ Confidentiality and professionalism are maintained at all times

You support additional initiatives as needed

→ Social media management, team coordination, or ad hoc projects are executed efficiently

What You’ve Done Before
  • 5+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant or in a similar role (non-negotiable)
  • Proven experience supporting C-level executives (CEO, Founder, or similar)
  • Strong experience in calendar management, client communication, and document preparation
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail and follow-through
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize, and adapt in fast-paced environments
  • Proficiency in Google Workspace and ability to quickly learn new tools
Who You Are

Proactive — you anticipate needs and act before being asked

Detail-oriented — you catch what others miss

Solutions-driven — you find ways to make things happen

Highly organized — you keep multiple priorities and projects on track

Professional — you maintain confidentiality and clear communication

Adaptable — you thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments

Who This Is NOT For

This is not a fit if your experience is primarily:

  • Administrative support without direct C-level exposure
  • Project coordination without ownership or independent problem-solving
  • Roles where calendar management, stakeholder communication, or document prep were minimal
  • Reactive assistants who wait to be told what to do
What Success Looks Like
  • The Co-Founder’s day runs efficiently with priorities clearly managed
  • Internal and external stakeholders experience smooth, professional communication
  • Deadlines and deliverables are consistently met without reminders
  • Documents, reports, and information are accurate, organized, and ready when needed
  • Operations flow smoothly, and ad hoc tasks are executed proactively

Requirements

Minimum Technical and Work Environment Requirements:

  • Internet Connection:
    • Primary internet connection with a minimum speed of 15 Mbps.
    • Backup internet connection with at least 10 Mbps.
    • Backup connection must be capable of supporting work during a power outage.
  • Primary Device:
    • Desktop or laptop equipped with at least:

  • Limitless Career Growth: Unlock a world of possibilities and resources to propel your career forward.
  • Fast-Paced Thrills: Thrive in a high-energy, engaging atmosphere. Embrace challenges and reap stimulating rewards.
