Madrid Operations Group is a fractional operations consultancy that supports clients with high-level business and administrative execution. Formalized in early 2026, the firm is expanding its client roster and operator team while transitioning to an AI-first operating model built around Notion and Claude. The Managing Partner currently spends significant time on inbox triage, calendar coordination, and follow-up that limits her ability to focus on client-facing consulting work.

As the firm scales and adds operators, there is a need for a sophisticated, ownership-driven executive assistant who can function as an operations manager and support both the Managing Partner and the broader team without requiring close oversight.

You will serve as the company-level Executive Assistant and Operations Manager, supporting the Managing Partner and the wider operator team. You will own inbox triage, calendar management, and follow-up with contacts, ensuring requests are actioned promptly and nothing falls through the cracks. Beyond daily administrative ownership, you will build and maintain AI-driven workflows, dashboards, and SOPs in Notion and Claude, support client-facing coordination, and may join client meetings as trust is established.

Over time, the role has potential to expand into overseeing back-end execution for client engagements as the team grows.

• Inbox & Calendar Management: Triage incoming email and manage the Managing Partner's calendar, including scheduling calls and protecting work blocks.
• Contact Follow-Up: Proactively follow up with contacts on pending calls, commitments, and open loops without being prompted.
• Client-Facing Coordination: Represent the firm professionally in client communications and, as appropriate, join client meetings.

• AI Workflow Development: Build and maintain workflows, dashboards, and SOPs in Notion and Claude to improve operational efficiency.
• Urgent Task Execution: Complete time-sensitive requests within 24 hours, exercising judgment and initiative rather than waiting for direction.
• Operations Support: Support the broader operator team as the company scales its client base and internal structure.
• Back-End Client Admin (Future Scope): Take on administrative execution for client engagements as the role matures.

• AI & Systems Fluency: Demonstrated proficiency with Notion and Claude, including building workflows, dashboards, and SOPs. Prior experience or training with AI tools is required, as you will use AI as a working partner rather than a replacement for judgment.
• Extreme Ownership: Strong track record of ownership and initiative, with the ability to execute urgent requests within 24 hours without follow-up.
• Strategic Thinking: Ability to operate with critical thinking and sound judgment, managing up rather than waiting for instructions.
• Client-Ready Professionalism: Comfortable in client-facing situations and able to represent a brand professionally, including in meetings.
• Operational Autonomy: Capable of stepping into an operations-manager-level role with minimal onboarding or ongoing management.
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal English communication skills suitable for direct client interaction.
