About the Role
We're looking for an Executive Assistant who operates more like a thought partner and builder than a traditional admin. This role sits at the intersection of executive support, systems thinking, and project execution. You'll work closely with the principal to figure out priorities, solve problems, build processes from scratch, and turn ideas into actual output.
There is no fixed task list here. You'll need to ask the right questions, identify what needs to happen next, and operate confidently in an environment where things are still being built. If you thrive on ambiguity and can move between strategic brainstorming and hands-on execution without losing momentum, this role is a strong fit.
Responsibilities
Work directly with the principal to identify priorities, clarify direction, and determine what needs to happen next
Serve as a sounding board for ideas, new initiatives, and problem-solving sessions
Translate ambiguous challenges into clear next steps and actionable plans
Communicate proactively via WhatsApp, email, and Zoom, including async updates when the principal is traveling
Build workflows, systems, and processes from scratch, documenting them as they're developed
Identify gaps in how things are running and propose improvements without being asked
Take on short-term projects and drive them to completion, turning ideas into concrete documents, plans, or systems
Manage multiple initiatives simultaneously without losing track of details
Handle personal and family-related tasks delegated by the principal with discretion and complete confidentiality
What We're Looking For
Experience in an EA, chief of staff, operations, or strategic support role where you were trusted to figure things out rather than follow a defined playbook
Strong critical thinking and problem-solving instincts, identifying what needs to happen and acting on it
Comfortable operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments without a clearly defined daily structure
Resourceful and proactive, asking the right questions and closing the loop without being told
Strong written and verbal English communication across both async and real-time formats
Organized and detail-oriented, managing multiple threads simultaneously
Discretion and trustworthiness when handling personal, family, or sensitive matters
Nice to Have
Technical background, including familiarity with developer tools, product thinking, or systems design
