Meraki
: meraki [may-rah-kee] (adjective) This is a Greek word that is often used to describe doing something with soul, creativity, or love -- when you put "something of yourself" into what you're doing, whatever it may be.

We believe that the key to providing high-quality therapy services is through a team of dedicated and empowered professionals. We provide our team with the training, support, and resources they need to do their job effectively.

We understand that our team members are our greatest asset and are committed to fostering a culture of respect, collaboration, and growth. Meraki Health provides collaborative and multidisciplinary therapy services that help individuals grow in their ability to relate, communicate, and function within their home and community.

We provide our clients with personalized care that is tailored to their unique needs and circumstances. We understand that every individual is different, and we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone feels heard, valued, and empowered to achieve their goals.

Overview:

This is not your typical executive assistant role. You will partner directly with a visionary, fast‑thinking CEO whose mission is to solve complex problems for others—every single day. She is creative, driven, and endlessly innovative, often moving between bursts of rapid momentum and periods of steady, methodical progress. Your role: to bring structure, calm, and follow‑through to that dynamic energy. You’ll serve as her organizational anchor, her prefrontal cortex, and her trusted representative—helping translate big ideas into strategic action.

Core Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the CEO’s operational and organizational partner, keeping her focused, prioritized, and on track.
  • Adapt to a variable pace of work—some days fast and high‑intensity, others steady and process‑oriented.
  • Anticipate needs before they arise, from managing schedules and logistics to ensuring hydration, caffeine, and nutrition (hangry prevention is essential).
  • Manage communications with professionalism and warmth, including phone calls, emails, and client engagement.
  • Support client relations by assisting with outreach, intake, and communication with physician offices to facilitate referrals and collaboration.
  • Coordinate travel and logistics efficiently, with flexibility for evolving plans.
  • Assist with staff support and training initiatives, ensuring consistent communication and follow‑through across the team.
  • Participate in weekly leadership meetings to maintain a pulse on company operations, priorities, and ongoing projects.
  • Represent the CEO in select internal and external communications with professionalism, empathy, and discretion.
  • Uphold absolute confidentiality with all patient, partner, and business information.
  • Utilize technology tools effectively to organize workflows, manage tasks, and optimize efficiency.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
  • Highly organized, proactive, and adaptable—able to adjust seamlessly to changing priorities and energy levels.
  • Tech‑savvy and resourceful, with the ability to learn and apply new tools quickly.
  • Emotionally intelligent and compassionate, with strong interpersonal communication skills.
  • Thick‑skinned and resilient—able to navigate a demanding environment with calm and humor.
  • Trustworthy, professional, and discreet, with a natural warmth that builds rapport easily.
  • Strong communicator and relationship‑builder, both with internal staff and external partners.
  • Willing to travel as needed and take ownership of projects from start to finish.
  • Interest in professional growth within the field of pediatric therapy or healthcare management.
Why This Role Matters:

You will help bring rhythm to creativity, organization to innovation, and steadiness to a mission‑driven leader who is passionate about improving lives. Your presence ensures the CEO’s vision is translated into consistent, effective action—sustaining both the pace and purpose of the company’s work.
