About the role
- This is a high-impact executive administration role in a fast-moving and evolving business.
- You'll often need to make decisions with incomplete information, surface risks early, and keep work moving without creating unnecessary noise or rework.
- This is an exceptional administration role where you'll bring judgment and a point of view, but your primary responsibility is to make the executive and the operating system work better through accurate, proactive, collaborative execution.
Responsibilities
- Own a complex calendar as a strategic operating tool, balancing executive priorities, customer and revenue commitments, leadership forums, preparation time, focus time, travel, and personal commitments
- Support meeting prep by ensuring the right attendees, context, agendas, pre-reads, links, decision points, and follow-up actions are in place
- Partner with the CBO's Chief of Staff to maintain shared visibility into priorities, risks, requests, decisions, and follow-ups
- Collaborate with other executive admins, Chiefs of Staff, business partners, and cross-functional leaders to resolve scheduling and operating needs without creating parallel processes or confusion
- Support communication by tracking drafts, deadlines, approvals, distribution lists, links, and follow-through, ensuring that important messages are accurate and do not stall
- Maintain accurate administrative systems, including expenses, contacts, recurring meeting structures, action-item tracking, and relevant executive reference materials
- Surface risks early, make recommendations, and own issues through resolution rather than simply completing the first task requested
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate directly, concisely, and appropriately with senior leaders and cross-functional partners
- You'll work closely with the CBO, his Chief of Staff, the Office of the CBO team, other executive admins, Chiefs of Staff, business partners, and senior cross-functional leaders.
- You'll first learn the existing system, build trust, and develop pattern recognition - then you'll bring best practices and your expertise to help reshape systems and make them work even better.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience supporting a senior executive, preferably a C-level executive or equivalent leader in a complex, fast-moving organization
- Expertise managing a highly complex executive calendar across multiple time zones, competing priorities, recurring leadership forums, customer commitments, and protected personal or focus time
- Experience planning complex domestic and international travel, including contingency planning and coordination across multiple travelers, hosts, vendors, and time zones
- Experience working with and/or for a senior Chief of Staff in tight, trusted partnership on systems- and process-based approaches to make order out of competing priorities
- Proven ability to prioritize independently, make sound decisions with incomplete information, and escalate risks early with a recommendation
- Demonstrated track record of accurate, detail-oriented execution across scheduling, events, communications, expenses, and follow-through
- Comfort working in a high-change environment where priorities shift quickly and the person must continuously re-plan without losing important details
- Ability to work primarily on Eastern Time, with flexibility for occasional EMEA and APJ commitments and executive travel
Nice to have
- Experience supporting a Chief Business Officer, Chief Revenue Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, or another executive responsible for a broad, customer-facing organization
- Experience working in technology, SaaS, or another business with complex customer, revenue, and cross-functional operating rhythms
- Experience supporting executive customer engagements, leadership offsites, board-related preparation, or S-team-level events
- Experience using AI responsibly to improve administrative workflows while personally validating accuracy, privacy, judgment, and final outputs
- Project or program management experience that complements, but does not replace, strong executive administration fundamentals
- AI fluency means using these tools to amplify human judgment, not replace it.
- We believe people with these skills will thrive as work and technology continue to evolve:
- Awareness: U nderstand yourself and others.
