We are looking for a highly dependable Executive Assistant to support the Founder's Office in driving execution, coordination, and closure across multiple business functions. This is a high-ownership role designed for someone who acts as an execution partner rather than a clerical assistant. We work closely with senior leadership to ensure priorities move forward smoothly, deadlines are met, and cross-functional coordination happens without friction. The role suits a mature, organized professional who thrives in fast-moving environments and takes pride in follow-through and accountability.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities

• Monitor marketing and digital execution timelines and flag delays proactively
• Handle travel coordination and essential administrative support
• Act as a central point of coordination to keep priorities aligned and work moving forward

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 4-10 years of experience in executive assistance, operations, project coordination, or leadership support roles
• Proven experience supporting founders, senior leaders, or managers in coordination-heavy environments
• Strong execution mindset with a natural habit of follow-ups and task closure
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure
• Comfortable coordinating with multiple stakeholders and managing competing priorities

• Long-term mindset with stability and commitment to growing alongside the organization
