## Description

We're looking for an **Executive and Operations Assistant** to support a busy principal across calendar management, administrative operations, vendor coordination, and recurring business tasks. You will be a trusted partner who keeps things running behind the scenes, handles sensitive information with full discretion, and takes ownership of operational responsibilities without needing to be followed up.

This is a high-trust role. The right candidate is someone who is organized, reliable, and professional in every interaction — someone the principal can hand things off to with full confidence that they will be handled correctly and on time. If you are a strong communicator who takes initiative, manages details without dropping them, and understands that discretion and dependability are non-negotiable in this kind of role, this is a strong fit.

**Administrative Support**

-   Handle day-to-day administrative tasks including email management, document organization, and correspondence
-   Draft, review, and send communications on behalf of the principal as needed
-   Maintain organized records and files that are easy to access and always current

**Operations and Vendor Coordination**

-   Submit monthly product orders and track delivery and fulfillment accurately
-   Coordinate with vendors, suppliers, and service providers on recurring and ad hoc tasks
-   Follow up on open items and ensure operational tasks are completed on time without being prompted

**Research and Special Projects**

-   Conduct research on topics, vendors, or opportunities as requested and present findings clearly
-   Support special projects and one-off tasks as they arise
-   Anticipate needs and stay ahead of recurring responsibilities without waiting to be asked

### What You Bring

-   Proven experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or Operations Assistant supporting a senior professional or executive
-   Excellent written and verbal English communication skills with a professional and polished tone
-   High level of discretion and reliability when handling sensitive information and confidential tasks
-   Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously without dropping details
-   Self-directed and proactive with the ability to take ownership of tasks and see them through to completion
-   Comfortable working independently in a fully remote environment
-   Available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM US Eastern Time

### Nice to Have

-   Experience supporting a founder, entrepreneur, or senior executive in a lean or startup environment
