The Opportunity

We’re looking for an Executive Assistant to support senior leaders in our People Org across the company and help move some of our most cross-functional, high-impact initiatives forward. This role is based in our San Francisco hub and requires in-office presence 3 times per week.

As an Executive Assistant, you’ll be a strategic and operational partner — not just managing logistics, but helping leaders stay focused, prepared, and connected to what matters most. You’ll work at the intersection of company-wide priorities and functional execution, gaining exposure to executive-level strategy and decision-making.

As an Executive Assistant, you will:

Manage complex calendars, coordinate travel logistics, organize inboxes, submit expenses, and ensure seamless day-to-day execution.

Prepare materials for key meetings — including talking points, briefing documents, and polished decks — to help leaders engage with insight and confidence.

Track and manage cross-functional action items to ensure follow-ups are completed and initiatives stay on track.

Manage communication between leaders and other internal or external stakeholders, liaising with executives, partners, and team members across the company.

Plan and orchestrate work to ensure leaders’ priorities are met, organizational goals are achieved, and best practices are upheld.

Handle sensitive information with a high degree of professionalism, discretion, and emotional intelligence, maintaining trust and integrity at all times.

Qualifications

We are looking for a highly capable and forward-thinking Executive Assistant who thrives in fast-paced, ever-evolving environments. The ideal candidate brings a unique combination of operational excellence, strategic acumen, and emotional intelligence to support the leader in achieving maximum impact.

Success in this role will come naturally if you:

Has 5+ years of professional experience, and 3+ years of experience supporting senior leaders, ideally in fast-paced, high-growth, or startup environments.

Think in systems and enjoy simplifying complexity — with the ability to build intuitive, effective tools (like a well-crafted Superhuman Doc) that drive clarity and alignment.

Experience drafting and sending communications on behalf of executives, with a strong ability to operate effectively in asynchronous environments.

Act as a true force multiplier for executives — anticipating needs, managing details, and creating leverage in every interaction.

Remain calm, resourceful, and solution-oriented in the face of ambiguity or rapid change, always bringing a steady, thoughtful approach to problem-solving.

Communicate with clarity and empathy, both in writing and in person, helping to refine and elevate the leader's voice in internal documents and presentations.

Care deeply about people and team culture, and are energized by helping high-performing teams stay connected, aligned, and effective.

Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments.
