  • Travel & Logistics: Plan and execute seamless domestic and international travel, including itineraries, accommodations, and contingencies.
  • Execution Support: Track action items, follow up with internal and external stakeholders, and ensure accountability against commitments.
  • Confidential Support: Handle sensitive business and personal matters with professionalism and discretion.
  • After-Hours Availability: Be responsive and flexible to support urgent or time-sensitive matters outside standard business hours.

Qualifications

What Success Looks Like

  • The CEO’s time is focused only on the most strategic and high-value priorities.
  • Meetings and schedules run seamlessly, with proper preparation and follow-up.
