What we are looking for in you
We’re looking for a highly organized, proactive, and sharp Executive Assistant to support three key executives — the CEO, CFO, and VP of Enterprise Sales. This role is at the center of the company’s leadership operations, ensuring calendars, priorities, and communication flow run smoothly. The right person thrives on complexity, keeps things moving with minimal guidance, and knows how to make three leaders look like they have twice the hours in a day.
What you will be doing
Executive Support & Calendar Management
- Manage complex and frequently changing calendars across time zones; coordinate internal and external meetings, board sessions, and travel.
- Anticipate scheduling conflicts and proactively resolve them with diplomacy and good judgment.
- Serve as gatekeeper and liaison for incoming requests and communications.
Operational Coordination
- Prepare and organize materials for executive meetings, including agendas, pre-reads, and follow-ups.
- Partner closely with the leadership team on strategic scheduling and time allocation.
- Track key deliverables and ensure deadlines are met.
Travel & Expense Management
- Coordinate detailed domestic and international travel plans.
- Process and reconcile expense reports with accuracy and speed.
Cross-Functional Support
- Partner with teams across Finance, Sales, and Operations to support leadership initiatives.
- Assist with executive communications and presentation prep as needed.
- Maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive information with absolute discretion.
What you must have
- 5+ years of executive support experience, ideally supporting multiple C-level leaders in a fast-paced or high-growth company.
- Expert at calendar management and prioritization under pressure.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills — polished, concise, and tactful.
- Tech-savvy with Google Workspace, Slack, Asana and modern scheduling tools
- Resourceful and unflappable — you don’t just solve problems, you see them coming.
- Deep sense of professionalism, reliability, and good humor under pressure.
Why This Role Matters
This is a high-impact position that keeps the leadership team operating efficiently and focused on the most important work. The EA will play a crucial role in connecting people, priorities, and execution across the company — ensuring our leadership team runs as a single, synchronized engine.
