Impact In This Role

The Executive Assistant is the operational engine behind the President & CEO’s day. This person owns the calendar, travel and inbox so the President & CEO can focus on the highest priorities, and handles scheduling requests from across the company. The role also prepares itineraries for multi-day trips and events involving the President & CEO, and supports company events.

The role sits in the Office of the CEO team and reports to the Chief of Staff, while serving as executive assistant to the President & CEO. Because the role sees very sensitive information, discretion is essential.

What You’ll Be Doing

Executive & Calendar Support

  • Own President & CEO's calendar end-to-end — complex scheduling, prioritization, and proactive management of conflicts across multiple time zones
  • Anticipate scheduling needs before they arise; protect time for high-priority work and thinking
  • Prepare President & CEO for meetings with relevant context, briefings, and materials
  • Manage high-volume email; draft correspondence, flag action items, and ensure timely follow-through
  • Coordinate and manage complex meeting cadences across the Executive Leadership Team and extended leadership organization, including agenda preparation, pre-read distribution, and post-meeting action item tracking to ensure decisions are captured and followed through
  • Coordinate closely with the Chief of Staff to align on priorities and ensure nothing is missed

Travel Planning & Logistics

  • Plan and book complex domestic and international travel — flights, hotels, ground transport, visas — often on short notice with changing itineraries
  • Travel with President & CEO on select high-priority trips to provide on-the-ground support
  • Build detailed travel itineraries and anticipate logistics at every step
  • Manage travel expenses and reconcile reports accurately and on time

Meeting & Event Coordination

  • Coordinate executive leadership team meetings and offsites, including gathering agendas, logistics, and tracking follow-ups
  • Support All Hands meetings and company-wide events — managing AV, Zoom, run of show, and speaker coordination
  • Manage conference room calendars and troubleshoot tech issues in real time

Administrative & Special Projects

  • Maintain and update critical documentation, expense reports, and organizational records
  • Support confidential projects with the highest level of discretion
  • Assist with external relations, executive outreach, and stakeholder communications as needed
  • Take on special projects at the direction of President & CEO and the Chief of Staff

Please note: All employees are expected to maintain and contribute to the QMS.

Desired Traits

  • 5+ years of executive assistant experience, ideally supporting a C-suite executive in a fast-paced tech or startup environment
  • Discreet and trustworthy: handles sensitive personal and professional information with complete professionalism
  • Exceptionally organized, with a bias toward systems and proactive planning
  • Clear communicator, written and verbal, who can represent the President & CEO's voice when needed
  • Calm under pressure and decisive when priorities change
  • Comfortable managing up: keeps a busy executive on track without overstepping
  • Tech-driven: proficient with Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom and travel booking platforms, picks up new tools quickly, and uses AI to support and improve workflows
  • Resourceful and self-directed: finds solutions before problems become visible
  • Able to work on site with the Office of the CEO team
  • Japanese language proficiency is a plus, but not required

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
