Executive Assistant, Development & Fundraising

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America's boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country's biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society.

We are looking for an Executive Assistant to join our dynamic team of administrative professionals. We need a quick-thinking collaborator to support multiple leaders on our development (fundraising) team, someone eager to learn, confident in sharing ideas, and energized by finding better ways to get results. The Stand Together development team partners with top business leaders and entrepreneurs to tackle the country's biggest challenges through financial and strategic leadership of our most innovative programs and investments. We're seeking a trusted collaborator who thrives in a fast-moving environment where curiosity, initiative, attention to detail, and mutual benefit drive success.

In this role, you will connect task management to organizational priorities with a high degree of confidentiality, a sense of urgency, and customer focus. The development team is a fast-paced, collaborative group with a reliance on effective calendaring and meeting management. To be successful in this role, you will take pride in identifying and anticipating business needs, recognizing that success is determined by intentionality and your ability to execute with excellence. You enjoy being part of a team that supports and learns from each other and finds fulfillment by helping others achieve success!

How You Will Contribute

  • Provide calendar management. With a high level of attention to detail, prioritize a high volume of inquiries and requests while troubleshooting conflicts for key leaders and the broader team. Make judgements on time and recommendations grounded in strategic priorities and with a win-win mentality to ensure smooth day-to-day engagements.
  • Provide general administrative support. Provide light event support, ad-hoc project coordination, as well as general admin related tasks such as reconciling receipts and executing expense reports on behalf of the leaders.
  • Own and contribute to team and organizational projects and operational improvements as needed. Proactively seek, share, and apply knowledge to spot opportunities and deliver innovative, entrepreneurial solutions in fast-paced environments with limited direction.
  • Meeting preparation and participation. Assemble meeting agendas, record meeting minutes and notes, and oversee A / V needs and action items.
  • Identify areas to increase efficiency and innovate to improve administrative processes. Seek opportunities to help the administrative team support the organization's goals more effectively. Identify, learn, and teach new tools or techniques to elevate the level of support and partnership the team gives.
  • The role will be based in-person in the Ballston, VA office.

What You Will Bring

  • 5+ years of professional experience in a support or administrative capacity
  • Experience in a high volume scheduling environment, strongly preferred
  • Astute attention to detail and drive to take initiative
  • Track record of follow-up and follow-through; high degree of reliability
  • Extremely organized, self-disciplined, and professional in demeanor
  • High degree of confidentiality, sound judgment, ability to think on your feet and problem solve while maintaining composure
  • Articulate and concise oral and written communication skills
  • Proficient in MS Office Suite, including Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
  • Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect.
  • Standout Candidates Will Bring

  • Proficiency with expense reporting software, such as Concur.
  • What We Offer

  • Competitive benefits : Enjoy a 6% 401(k) match with immediate vesting, flexible time off, comprehensive health and dental plans, plus wellness and mental health support through Peloton and Talkspace.
  • A meaningful career : Join a passionate community of over 1,300 employees dedicated to improving lives and driving innovative solutions to complex social challenges.
  • Commitment to growth : Thrive in a non-hierarchical environment that empowers employees to discover, develop and apply their unique talents.
  • Competitive compensation : Our approach rewards the value you create through competitive salaries and bonus opportunities, allowing you to share in the success you help drive.
  • Our Values : Working at Stand Together is different from many other organizations. Our culture is deeply rooted in Principle Based Management (PBM), a framework guided by the principles that drive human progress, such as dignity, openness, and bottom-up empowerment. PBM empowers our employees to be entrepreneurial, to innovate, and to continually drive transformation.

    We believe diversity fuels creativity, broadens knowledge, and helps drive success, and that is why we're proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and strive to treat all employees and applicants with honesty, dignity, respect and sensitivity.
