About this role

Overview

This is not a traditional assistant role.

We are seeking a high-level Executive Assistant to serve as the right-hand to the CEO. This individual must be proactive, detail-oriented, and able to think ahead without direction.

The right candidate anticipates needs, takes ownership, and ensures both personal and professional priorities run seamlessly.

• The CEO is always prepared and never rushed

• Details are handled without follow-up

• The assistant operates independently and brings solutions

Key Responsibilities

• Anticipate conflicts and resolve proactively

• Prepare the CEO for meetings, travel, and events

• Coordinate travel, logistics, and event planning

• Manage vendors and follow up without reminders

• Oversee household and personal operations

• Act as a gatekeeper and protect the CEO's time

Required Experience (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

• 5+ years supporting a CEO, founder, or senior executive

• Experience managing complex schedules independently

• Proven examples of anticipating needs without direction

• Experience in fast-paced or high-demand environments

Important – Read Before Applying

This role is NOT for someone who:

• Needs step-by-step direction

• Waits to be told what to do

• Has only administrative or organizing experience

Application Requirement (MANDATORY)

Include responses to:

• Tell me about a time you anticipated a need before being asked.

• How do you ensure nothing is missed when managing multiple priorities?
