Job description

Executive Assistant

We are looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to provide high-level administrative and operational support to a busy Founder. The Founder is currently serving as the central point for all communications and decisions, which has created a bottleneck in daily operations. This role is essential to introduce structure, manage the Founder's schedule and correspondence, and take ownership of critical administrative tasks, allowing the Founder to focus on strategic growth and leadership.

If you're a highly organized, proactive professional who thrives in fast-paced environments and enjoys bringing order to complexity, we'd love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Proactively manage the Founder's calendar, inbox, and communications
  • Schedule and coordinate meetings, including preparing agendas, notes, and follow-ups
  • Track and manage action items and project deadlines
  • Handle sensitive and confidential information with the highest level of discretion
  • Serve as the Founder's gatekeeper, ensuring priorities are aligned and time is optimized
  • Anticipate needs and proactively address potential issues before they arise
  • Liaise with internal teams and external stakeholders on behalf of the Founder
