## About the role

The Executive Assistant to the CEO is responsible for maximizing CEO effectiveness by ensuring his time, commitments, communication, and logistics run seamlessly. The purpose of this role is to maximize the amount of time the CEO can focus on high-leverage work that only he can do. Working closely with the CEO and Chief of Staff, this role creates the proactive structure and preparation that allows the CEO to stay focused and coordinated.

## What they're looking for

- Own the CEO’s calendar and time. Manage and prioritize meetings with strategic intent, protect focus time, anticipate conflicts, and think several weeks ahead
- Keep the CEO prepared. Ensure the CEO has the context, materials, agendas, and follow-ups needed for meetings and important commitments
- Manage CEO logistics. Own travel, scheduling, expenses, reservations, and other administrative details from start to finish
- Coordinate key stakeholders. Serve as a highly responsive point of coordination for executives, board members, investors, candidates, customers, and other important stakeholders
- Stay ahead of commitments. Track deadlines, follow-ups, and action items so nothing requiring the CEO’s attention falls through the cracks
- Support high-priority projects and events. Partner with the Chief of Staff, Head of Operations, Workplace Operations, and other leadership on important meetings, company events, and other CEO priorities as needed
