Executive Partner to CEO & COO – High-Stakes, High-Reward
North Palm Beach, FL | Commercial Real Estate
The Role
We are seeking an exceptional, battle-tested Executive Partner—not just an assistant—to work alongside the CEO & COO of a highly successful, privately held commercial real estate firm. This is a rare opportunity to step into the inner circle of a driven, entrepreneurial leader, where your judgment, agility, and discretion will be tested daily.
Our CEO/COO moves fast, thinks big, and demands excellence. Your mission is to anticipate needs before they are voiced, remove friction from every process, and manage both professional and personal priorities with precision. You will be the person who ensures nothing slips through the cracks—whether it’s negotiating with a bank, arranging international travel, executing complex research, or solving a problem before it becomes one.
The Environment
High-intensity. Fast-moving. No two days the same. You will be embedded in the center of decision-making, exposed to confidential strategic conversations, and relied upon to act with complete discretion. Thick skin, polished presence, and a calm demeanor under pressure are essential.
Core Responsibilities
- Act as the CEO/COO right hand—handling high-level operational, administrative, and personal matters
- Manage a complex and constantly shifting calendar, email, and travel schedule
- Oversee time-sensitive banking, contractual, and vendor relationships
- Execute in-depth research projects with actionable summaries and recommendations
- Coordinate with internal teams and external partners to ensure deliverables are met
- Serve as the CEO/COO representative in certain communications, ensuring tone and detail align with the company’s reputation for excellence
- Build systems and processes that create efficiency and scalability
What We’re Looking For
- Proven track record supporting a C-suite executive in a high-pressure environment
- Unmatched organizational skills and obsessive attention to detail
- Sharp judgment, excellent problem-solving, and forward-thinking mindset
- Grace and professionalism in all interactions—internal and external
- Entrepreneurial spirit with a team-oriented mindset
- The ability to keep pace with a leader who is always three steps ahead
The Upside
For the right candidate, this is more than a job—it’s a career pivot into the heart of a thriving business. You will gain unparalleled exposure to high-level strategy, build deep industry knowledge, and have direct influence on the CEO/COO ability to lead. Professional and financial growth opportunities are significant for someone who proves indispensable.
If you are an elite-level professional who thrives under pressure, loves solving problems at speed, and sees challenges as opportunities, we want to meet you. This is a role for someone who is as ambitious as they are reliable—and ready to step into a position of true influence.
