Overview
This role is an Executive Assistant supporting the Founder. You will be an individual contributor with high ownership and no direct reports. The work covers business tasks only, including managing the founder’s mailbox and calendar and carrying assigned projects from brief to result. Some workflows are already automated; for the remaining areas, you will be expected to build processes and improve efficiency.

- Sort the founder’s corporate mailbox, route cases to the responsible teams, and track each item until it is closed.
- Manage the founder’s calendar and daily plan, including calls and meetings across multiple time zones.
- Organize internal and external meetings (online and in person), including preparation and follow-up.
- Set up and maintain the founder’s task management system: select tools, define structure, and keep it current.

- Plan travel and organize events.
- Handle commercially sensitive information with appropriate discretion.

- Confident working with spreadsheets.
- Strong judgment in deciding what can be handled independently vs. what requires the founder’s input.
- Ability to close loops by finishing tasks, not only sending reminders.
- Ability to spot issues early and address them before they escalate.
- Willingness to travel for business at least twice a year.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience building or refining processes for tasks without existing standardized workflows.
- Demonstrated ability to automate repeatable work and coordinate internal resources to deliver outcomes.
