The Role: Executive Assistant to Founder
Location: New York, NY | Onsite
Compensation: $160k - $200k DOE + Incredible Benefits
Industry: Hypergrowth AI Company
An exciting, hypergrowth AI company is looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to become a true right hand to its Founder during a pivotal stage of growth. This is much more than traditional executive support. We’re looking for someone who is versatile, scrappy, genuinely curious, and energized by wearing multiple hats while helping a Founder and company scale.
You’ll own the day-to-day details that keep the Founder operating at their best while also jumping into operational needs, special projects, and whatever else comes up along the way. The right person loves being useful, figuring things out, and finding ways to make things run better without waiting to be asked.
Day-to-Day:
- Own a complex and fast-moving calendar, strategically prioritizing the Founder’s time and attention
- Coordinate meetings, travel, logistics, expenses, and day-to-day executive needs
- Act as a trusted partner to the Founder, anticipating needs and keeping priorities moving forward
- Work cross-functionally across the company to ensure strong communication and follow-through
- Jump into operational projects and help build processes as the company continues to scale
- Drive special projects from idea through execution, keeping stakeholders and deliverables on track
- Identify gaps, solve problems, and create structure in areas that are still being built
- Help streamline workflows and find ways to make the Founder and broader organization more efficient
- Handle sensitive and confidential information with excellent judgment
- Take on evolving priorities and new challenges as the needs of the Founder and company grow
What We’re Looking For:
- Experience supporting a Founder, CEO, or senior executive in a fast-paced startup or technology environment
- Someone who genuinely enjoys a broad scope and wants exposure beyond traditional EA responsibilities
- Scrappy, resourceful, and comfortable figuring things out with limited direction
- Naturally curious with an interest in understanding the business and how things work
- Strong operational instincts and an eye for improving processes and creating efficiencies
- Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple projects and competing priorities at once
- Proactive and anticipatory with excellent follow-through
- Comfortable operating with speed and adapting as priorities shift
- Tech-savvy and excited by the pace and possibilities of a rapidly scaling AI company
- Collaborative, grounded, and willing to jump in wherever they can make an impact
