As an Executive Assistant in Technology and Operations, you'll be a trusted partner to the leaders you support, helping keep their days running smoothly and their calendars (mostly) under control. You'll also be part of a small but mighty team of EAs who support the leaders of our 1,000+ person Tech and Ops organization. Collaboration, communication, and a good sense of humor go a long way with this group.
One minute you're planning a launch celebration, the next you're solving a scheduling puzzle that would make a chess player proud. Calendar management is a
* big* part of this role. Some executives have calendars that are frequently double- and triple-booked. You'll be the person who brings order to the chaos - prioritizing, negotiating time and making smart calls to keep everything moving.*"We're big enough to make an impact on the country, but small enough to care and know who you are and what you're contributing to the organization.
All new ideas are welcome!" Stephanie
F.
- VP Customer Service & Operations
*** Who you are
*** Strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills with a professional, approachable, and positive demeanor.
* Detail oriented; you thrive in a fast-paced environment, and genuinely enjoy bringing order to the chaos.
* Fluent in modern tech tools - already using AI tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT - and know how to anticipate needs.
* Microsoft Office and Teams, as well as expense management systems (e.g., Concur) experience
* Strong PowerPoint skills - you're comfortable turning an executive brain dump into a polished, visually compelling presentation, and you have a keen eye for detail (typos don't stand a chance).
* Ability to work primarily during Pacific Time Zone business hours; PST candidates preferred.
** Work Authorization
** Employer work visa sponsorship and support are not provided for this role. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States at hire and must maintain authorization to work in the United States throughout their employment with our company.
