Executive Assistant

About the Role

We're looking for a highly organized and proactive Executive Assistant to support both of our Co-Founders with day-to-day inbox management, scheduling, travel coordination, and administrative tasks. This is a high-trust role that requires strong judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate professionally on behalf of senior leadership.

Compensation: $7 USD per hour

Key Responsibilities
1. Inbox Management

2. Scheduling & Calendar Management

- Track points and loyalty programs

- Handle changes and cancellations; collect expense receipts tied to each trip

4. Data Entry & Admin

- Update CRM records and maintain trackers (AP aging, vendor payment plans, cap table notes) — inputting only, not judgment calls

- Document filing and folder organization (Drive hygiene)

- Distribute meeting notes and action items

Required Skills & Experience

-
Experience: Prior experience as an Executive Assistant, VA, or senior admin supporting founder-level or executive leadership

-
Communication: Exceptional written English — able to draft professional replies that represent the Founders accurately
