• Turn complex or fragmented information into concise, decision-ready materials
• Coordinate communication with internal leaders, external partners, advisors, and other stakeholders
• Support evaluation of new initiatives by collecting data and consolidating input from relevant teams
• Identify blockers, missing information, and execution risks across priority projects
• Bring structure to new initiatives by defining next steps, owners, and required inputs
• Support preparation and follow-up for board meetings, strategic sessions, partnerships, and other high-impact discussions

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in executive support, business operations, project coordination, consulting, or a similar role
• Experience working directly with a Founder, CEO, entrepreneur, or senior executive

• Confidence communicating with senior executives, partners, and external stakeholders
• Ability to work independently and make sound judgment calls
• High level of discretion when handling confidential business information
• Comfortable working in a fast-changing environment
• Availability to work primarily within the Founder's EST time zone

What We Offer

• Direct collaboration with the Founder & CEO
• Exposure to strategic and operational decision-making across several business areas
