Job Description
Executive Assistant to Entrepreneur
(Growth Path to Executive Operations Partner)
Location: Remote to start, transitioning into primarily in-person as operations expand (with flexible availability, including weekends)
Type: Full-time
Environment: Startup / high-growth
About the Role
We’re looking for a tech-savvy Executive Assistant to join a fast-paced startup environment and support a hands-on entrepreneur across multiple ventures. This isn’t a traditional EA role — it’s a unique opportunity to become a trusted right hand, growing into an Executive Operations Partner who helps scale operations, build systems, and shape the future of the business.
You’ll begin by handling executive/admin tasks, HR/payroll support, recruiting, meetings, technical setups, and organization of the entrepreneur’s personal task manager. Over time, you’ll expand into deeper operational ownership — automations, HR systems, recruiting operations, and process improvements.
Your mission: bring order to chaos, keep projects and priorities on track, and free the entrepreneur to focus on growth.
Responsibilities
Executive & Admin Support
- Manage the founder’s task manager and timelines in Tana.
- Keep daily and weekly priorities organized and actionable.
- Capture, structure, and track ideas, notes, and follow-ups.
- Prepare, send, and track NDAs, contracts, and other documents.
- Join meetings on behalf of the entrepreneur: take notes, capture action items, follow up, and represent priorities confidently.
Technical & Systems Administration
- Handle light tech tasks like Twilio A2P 10DLC registrations and Azure account setup.
- Manage SaaS seats/licenses, renewals, and permissions.
- Make workflow adjustments in tools like Asana.
- Configure automations and integrations using Zapier, Make, or Power Automate.
- Document systems and processes for repeatability.
- Research and learn new tools/systems as needed — without requiring constant step-by-step guidance.
HR, Payroll & Recruiting Support
- Coordinate onboarding and offboarding (accounts, access, documentation).
- Maintain HR records and compliance documentation.
- Process payroll inputs, track bonuses/commissions, and ensure accurate reporting.
- Support recruiting efforts: screening candidates, scheduling interviews, and running portions of the hiring process.
- Participate in interviews when needed, take notes, and provide structured feedback.
Content & Marketing Support
- Schedule and publish social media posts.
- Organize content libraries and repurpose materials into updates or snippets.
Workflow Design & Optimization
- Collaborate with the entrepreneur to design and implement high-efficiency workflows for entrepreneurial growth.
- Create repeatable checklists and templates for recurring tasks.
- Continuously refine systems to reduce friction and increase speed of execution.
Growth Path → Executive Operations Partner
As you take on more responsibility, you’ll grow into the Executive Operations Partner role, where you will:
- Own HR, payroll, compliance, and recruiting operations.
- Take broader ownership of meetings, partnerships, and internal communications.
- Build and manage automation workflows, API/webhook integrations, and system optimizations.
- Develop scalable processes that support business growth.
- Provide input on operations strategy and improvements.
- Act as the founder’s operator and right hand — ensuring execution, accountability, and follow-through across ventures.
What We’re Looking For
- Startup mindset: thrive in a fast-moving, ever-changing environment.
- Comfort with chaos: stay calm and resourceful while managing an expanding list of tasks and projects.
- Weekend availability: comfortable supporting outside standard Mon–Fri hours when needed.
- Tech-comfortable:
- Familiar with automation tools (Zapier, Make, Power Automate).
- Rough understanding of APIs and webhooks (enough to configure, test, and follow documentation).
- If you only have a basic understanding of these areas, that’s okay — the entrepreneur can teach you the rest as long as you are a self-starter who can learn quickly on your own.
- Organized & proactive: you see what needs to be done and act before being asked.
- Detail-oriented: nothing slips — tasks, renewals, compliance, or follow-ups.
- Work ethic that matches the entrepreneur’s: this is not a 9–5 role — you bring intensity, commitment, and follow-through at the same level as the person you’re supporting.
- Confident communicator: professional, concise, and able to represent the entrepreneur in meetings.
- Growth-minded: eager to move from EA into Executive Operations Partner.
Why Join Us
- Be part of a startup environment where no two days are the same.
- Direct exposure to building and scaling multiple ventures.
- Blend of admin, HR, recruiting, technical ops, workflow design, and systems management.
- Clear growth path into a senior role as Executive Operations Partner.
- Remote flexibility, autonomy, and meaningful impact.
