Executive Assistant to Entrepreneurial Founder | Family Office Launch | Midtown

Executive Assistant to Entrepreneurial Founder | Family Office Launch | Midtown, New York

This role is both. Which is why I couldn't be happier to be working on it.

A Founder has just completed a significant exit. He's now building a Family Office from scratch in Midtown, New York. Actively investing in a portfolio of startups, spending his days in dialogue with Founders, meeting investors, and doing the associated work that comes with deploying capital at pace.

The personal side is equally demanding. Purchasing multiple properties. Building a small team around him. Redesigning life post-exit. If you've been through this with a Principal before, you know exactly what I mean. If you haven't, this isn't the role to find out.

The EA is the link between everything. Business and private. There is no clear line between the two, and there won't be. New routines, new meetings, new movements, new everything. Nothing is established yet. You build it alongside him.

This is not a role where you inherit a system. This is a role where you create one.

Managing a schedule that changes daily across investments, personal commitments, property purchases, and a growing team.

Coordinating travel, logistics, and communications across a portfolio of startup relationships and investor meetings.

Operating across business and personal with zero separation, because that's how this Founder works.

Building the infrastructure of a Family Office from the ground up: processes, contacts, routines, all of it.

Acting as the filter between him and everything else. You decide what reaches him and when.

You've supported a Founder before. That's non-negotiable.

Ideally, you've been through an exit with a Principal. You know what the aftermath looks like. The pace. The chaos. The opportunity. The moment when everything is being rebuilt at once, and the EA is the only person holding it together.

You're comfortable operating without a playbook. You don't need structure handed to you because you've built it before, probably more than once.

You've worked across business and personal. Not as an afterthought. As the job.

This is not a role for someone who's only worked in structured corporate environments. No offense to those environments, but they won't prepare you for this.

Someone looking for a clearly defined role with set hours and a predictable diary. Someone who needs sign-off before making decisions. Someone who sees "personal" tasks as beneath them. If you've never worked for a Founder, you'll spend the first three months catching up. He doesn't have three months.

Up to $300,000 base salary. Bonus. Full benefits, including health. Midtown, New York. Up to five days a week in the office, with flexibility when the Founder travels.
