Why Work with Us?
At Pearl, we’re not just another recruiting firm—we connect you with exceptional opportunities to work alongside visionary US and EU founders. Our focus is on placing you in roles where you can grow, be challenged, and build long-term, meaningful careers.
About the Company
Our client is a fast-growing thought leadership and media-driven business focused on publishing, audience growth, and long-form intellectual property. The company operates at the intersection of content, publishing, and creator-led brand building, with a strong emphasis on systems, consistency, and high-quality execution. The team is lean, fast-moving, and focused on building durable platforms ahead of a major publishing milestone.
Role Overview
The Executive Assistant (Calendar + Creator Ops Hybrid) serves as both the central authority for executive scheduling and the operational backbone behind content and audience growth initiatives. This role exists to protect executive focus through disciplined calendar ownership while independently running creator operations systems that ensure consistent content execution. The work is highly autonomous, execution-heavy, and requires strong judgment, discretion, and operational reliability. This role is best suited for a proactive operator who thrives in fast-paced, creator-led environments and can balance structure with creative execution.
Your Impact
You will reduce executive distraction by enforcing clear scheduling boundaries and protecting focus time. You will ensure consistent short-form content output leading into a major book launch, directly supporting audience growth and engagement. You will create reliable operational systems that prevent dropped tasks, missed posts, or broken workflows. Your work will improve visibility into content performance and outreach effectiveness, enabling better decision-making and sustained momentum.
