The Mission: High-Intensity Executive Support
We are looking for an elite Senior Executive Assistant to support our client’s Co-CEOs. This is not a scheduling-only role. You will act as a strategic surrogate, managing the CEO’s day, ensuring they never walk into a meeting unprepared, and driving operational excellence across both leadership calendars.
We need a "1% candidate"—someone with the intensity and sophistication to handle an inbox for 4 hours a day, conduct deep-dive research, and architect the CEO’s day while guarding commitments.
Key Responsibilities
I. Executive Presence & Communication
- Executive Ghostwriting: Draft sophisticated, persuasive, and nuanced emails for sales leads, high-level partnerships, and VIP clients in the CEO’s voice.
- Inbox Architecture: Take full ownership of the CEO’s high-volume inbox. Filter, categorize, and draft responses so that only final approvals or decisions are needed.
II. Strategic Project Management
- Project Coordination: Track and manage tasks, deadlines, and deliverables across all active engagements. Ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
- Meeting Prep & Intelligence: Prepare briefing materials and agendas. Conduct research so the CEO has full context for every conversation.
- Action Item Drive: Capture commitments from meetings and ensure follow-through.
III. Operations & Logistics
- Complex Coordination: Manage interlocking calendars for both Co-CEOs, ensuring seamless scheduling of partnership meetings and strategic sessions.
- Partnership Liaison: Serve as the professional first point of contact for external stakeholders, ensuring every interaction feels premium and detailed.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- Elite Writing: Near-native English with the ability to adapt your voice to a sophisticated professional tone.
- Tool Stack Proficiency: Google Workspace mastery is strongly preferred, including shared Drives, complex Calendars, and collaborative Sheets.
- High Intensity: Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment with speed and precision.
- Research Skills: Ability to quickly synthesize information about companies or individuals into actionable insights.
- AI Fluency: Familiarity with AI tools to streamline workflows and research is highly preferred.
- Spanish Fluency: A major plus for internal collaboration, though not required for external tasks.
Why Join This Team?
- Strategic Seat: You are a partner in the company’s growth, not just an assistant. Gain exposure to high-level strategy and partnership development.
- Stability in USD: Permanent hiring model with competitive compensation in US Dollars.
- High-Level Mentorship: Work directly with executives who value precision and proactive thinking.
