Executive Assistant

Welcome to the video first world!

From your everyday PowerPoint presentations to Hollywood movies, AI will transform the way we create and consume content. Today, people want to watch and listen, not read — both at home and at work. If you’re reading this and nodding, check out our brand video.

Despite the clear preference for video, communication and knowledge sharing in the business environment are still dominated by text, largely because high-quality video production remains complex and challenging to scale—until now….

Meet Synthesia

The Role

We’re looking for a world-class Executive Assistant who can serve as a true partner to our Cofounders, Steffen and Victor. This person will be the go-to for keeping things moving, anticipating needs before they arise, and making sure priorities are executed seamlessly. The scope will be broad and varied—from managing complex calendars and coordinating travel, to supporting off-sites, events, personal matters, and contributing to strategic projects. This is a high-impact role with exposure to both operational and strategic challenges. If you’re flexible, thrive under pressure, and love being the person who just gets things done, this could be the role for you. You'll join a dynamic, ambitious, and supportive team that values ownership and initiative.

What you'll do:

• Act as the right hand to our Cofounders, managing schedules, communications, and priorities.
• Anticipate needs and proactively resolve issues before they become problems.
• Organise and execute leadership meetings and special events.
• Coordinate complex travel logistics across time zones.
• Support personal and professional tasks that keep the Cofounders focused on their most important work.
• Contribute to strategic and operational projects—bringing structure, follow-through, and creative problem-solving.

You'll need to be:

• Experienced: You’ve worked as an EA (ideally supporting founders, C-suite, or executives in fast-growth environments). Experience in Private equity or investing would be highly valuable.
• Resilient: You thrive in intense, ever-changing environments and stay calm under pressure.
• Resourceful: You are a natural problem solver with a “no job too big or small” mindset.
• Organised: You balance multiple priorities seamlessly, with strong attention to detail.
• Flexible: You can pivot quickly and handle both strategic projects and tactical tasks with equal energy.
• Confidential: You handle sensitive information with the highest discretion and professionalism.
• People-first: You build trust quickly and communicate with clarity and warmth.

At Synthesia, we expect everyone to...

• Put the Customer First
• Own it & Go Direct
• Be Fast & Experimental
• Make the Journey Fun
