Role Overview

The CEO of our client is seeking a proactive, detail-oriented Executive Assistant to be their right hand.

The objective is to remove distractions and keep both life and business running smoothly.

Key Responsibilities

• Inbox & Communication:
• Full access to the CEO's inbox: triage, prioritize, draft responses, and flag only what matters.

• Payments & Follow-up:
• Track outstanding invoices and payments; make sure they're received or made on time.

• Manage the calendar across personal and professional obligations.
• Send reminders and prep the CEO with relevant context before calls and meetings.
• Personal Logistics:
• Coordinate household and personal vendors remotely.
• Handle personal tasks discreetly and effectively.
• Business Liaison:
• Work with internal leadership and department heads to keep communication smooth.
• Cut out noise and streamline decision-making for the CEO.

Ideal Candidate

• 5+ years supporting a CEO or founder remotely.
• Strong judgment: knows what needs the CEO's attention and what can be handled.
• Relentless follow-through; nothing gets dropped.
• Tech-savvy with Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, and task management tools.
• Highly trustworthy, discreet, and reliable with sensitive information.
• Comfortable balancing personal and business responsibilities.
• Must be available during U.S. business hours.

Success Looks Like

• Inbox always under control; the CEO only sees what matters.
• Payments handled on time without the CEO's involvement.
• Calendar airtight; the CEO is never late or unprepared.
• Personal and business logistics run seamlessly.
• The CEO is freed from daily clutter and focused on growth.
