About the role

We are looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support our CFO/COO and the Head of People. This role is central to executive effectiveness: you’ll manage complex calendars, drive meeting and communication rigor, and run the operating mechanics behind cross-functional initiatives spanning Finance/Operations and People. You will be a trusted partner who anticipates needs, maintains high standards for follow-through, and uses modern tooling—including AI—to improve planning, documentation, and execution.
This is an in-office position that requires 5 days a week in our San Francisco HQ

You will

• Own complex calendar management for two executives with a prioritization and tradeoff mindset; proactively protect focus time and align schedules to business-critical goals.

• Prepare agendas, briefing materials, and decision-ready meeting packets; capture decisions, actions, owners, and deadlines to ensure follow-through.

• Manage executive communications and stakeholder coordination across Finance/Operations and People (internal and external).

• Translate exec priorities into structured plans (milestones, owners, dependencies, risks); maintain project dashboards and operating cadences.

• Drive execution on cross-functional initiatives (planning cycles, reviews, offsites, launches) by coordinating pre-work, exec readiness, stakeholder alignment, and post-meeting/action follow-ups.

• Improve operating systems (meeting hygiene, documentation standards, decision logs) and continuously refine workflows using automation/AI where appropriate.

• Own operational execution for key People programs and events, treating them as launches (planning, communications, logistics, measurement, retrospectives).

• Support team events, offsites, and onsite leadership visits; welcome executive visitors as needed.

• Partner with Workplace/IT as needed to ensure smooth onsite operations for exec meetings and events.

• Support special projects on an as-needed basis.

You are

• An experienced Executive Assistant who has worked in an administrative role for 3-5 years, ideally in a high-growth or fast-changing environment; experience supporting multiple executives is a plus.

• Strong project/program management skills: can run timelines, risks, dependencies, and stakeholder communications without dropping details.

• Excellent written communication (clear, concise, decision-oriented) and strong verbal presence with senior stakeholders.

• Highly proficient with Google Workspace; comfortable building lightweight systems in tools like Asana/Jira/Notion/Sheets (or equivalents).

• Demonstrated ability to use AI tools responsibly (e.g., summarization, drafting, meeting prep, workflow automation) while maintaining confidentiality and accuracy.

• Calm under pressure, highly organized, and decisive about priorities; able to manage both proactive planning and reactive needs.

• Available for occasional flexibility outside standard hours for executive/board-related needs.

You’ll get

• A high degree of trust in your ideas and execution.

• An opportunity to partner and collaborate with other talented people.

• The ability to make an immediate impact in helping customers create a great workplace experience.

• Support for your personal and professional growth.
