Job description

Executive Assistant To The Chief Executive Officer

Corcept is leading the way in the research and development of cortisol modulators, molecules that regulate cortisol activity at the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). To date, we have discovered more than 1,000 selective proprietary cortisol modulators.

In 2012, we received FDA approval of Korlym (mifepristone), the first approved treatment for hypercortisolism (Cushing's syndrome).

Today, our team and collaborators continue to unlock the possibilities of cortisol modulation as a way to treat serious diseases. With more than 30 ongoing studies across a wide range of disease areas, including endocrinology, oncology, metabolism, and neurology, we remain dedicated to advancing the possibilities of cortisol modulation.

What began as a ripple of scientific truth is now poised to unleash a sea change of discovery representing a fundamental shift in the way we understand and treat disease.

The individual in this role will provide high-level administrative support to the CEO. This position requires a proactive, resourceful, and highly skilled professional capable of managing a wide variety of complex administrative tasks with precision, discretion, and sound judgment. The ideal candidate will have exceptional communication skills, strong multitasking abilities, and the capacity to thrive in a fast-paced environment. This is a hybrid position, requiring on-site presence three days per week and as necessary on an ad hoc basis.

Responsibilities :

  • Coordinate and manage the CEO's schedule, including meetings, appointments, and travel arrangements. Anticipate scheduling conflicts and proactively resolve them
  • Schedule quarterly Board meetings and Board committee meetings. Prepare materials for Board meetings and manage day-to-day communications with Directors
  • Manage travel and logistics (hotel, transportation, food, expenses, etc.) for members of the Board of Directors and visiting guests
  • Work with CEO, CFO and Investor Relations staff to schedule quarterly earnings calls. Manage logistics associated with company announcements and investor calls
  • Lead special projects and ad-hoc assignments
  • Identify opportunities for administrative and operational process improvements
  • Prepare and edit Word, Excel, PowerPoint presentations, agendas and other documents
  • Provide calendaring, travel and other administrative support to members of the CEO's executive team when necessary
  • Screen and triage incoming calls and visitors; evaluate inquiries and either alert the CEO of priority matters or make an appropriate referral

Preferred Skills, Qualifications and Technical Proficiencies :

  • Ability to manage multiple high-priority tasks simultaneously while maintaining attention to detail and accuracy
  • Ability to view the calendar as a fluid and flexible puzzle, identifying potential challenges and proactively resolving them
  • Ability to remain calm, focused, and composed in high-stress situations
  • Ability to identify critical priorities, manage competing demands, and exercise sound decision-making in fast-moving situations
  • Maintain a positive outlook with a willingness to "roll up sleeves" and cheerfully pitch in wherever needed
  • Excellent organizational skills with a proven ability to prioritize, track, and execute projects efficiently and effectively
  • Ability to quickly learn and implement new procedures, software, and technologies
  • Preferred Education and Experience :

  • Bachelor's degree (Business Administration, Communications, or a related field)
  • Proven experience as an Executive Assistant or in a similar high-level administrative role, ideally supporting C-level executives
  • Experience in the pharmaceutical or healthcare industry is highly preferred
  • The pay range that the Company reasonably expects to pay for this headquarters-based position is $145,600 - $171,300; the pay ultimately offered may vary based on legitimate considerations, including geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and education.

    Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis.

    Corcept appreciates the commitment and hard work of all our team members as we strive to discover and develop novel treatments for patients with serious unmet medical needs.

    Corcept is an Equal Opportunity Employer
