Job Title Chief Executive Assistant

Location Remote

Time Zone US Eastern (ET) preferred; must overlap core ET working hours

Role Overview You are the CEO’s command center and execution integrator across a 3-business portfolio (luxury Caribbean vacation rental asset management, home services/insulation, and Boston real estate development). You translate fast-moving ideas into clear plans, systems, and follow-through—keeping operators accountable so nothing slips.

Key Responsibilities

- Own the CEO’s calendar, priorities, weekly planning rhythm, and daily execution check-ins

- Convert “brain dumps” into structured tasks, owners, deadlines, and follow-ups (with escalation when needed)

- Drive cross-business execution: unify plans, remove blockers, and keep momentum through rapid pivots

- Maintain a weekly portfolio scorecard (marketing, sales KPIs, project milestones, risks, next actions)

- Partner with key operators/partners (Ops, Sales, and Deal partners) to track commitments and accountability

- Coordinate across time zones and teams (including St. Martin ground support and remote VAs)

- Support light investor/client communication (owners/investors, not guests)

Required Qualifications

- Experience working as Chief of Staff / Senior Executive Assistant / Operations Partner roles supporting a founder or CEO

- Proven ability to run execution systems end-to-end (priorities → plans → tracking → completion)

- Comfort enforcing accountability with senior operators and partners; clear, confident follow-up style

- Strong project management skills (ClickUp, Asana, or equivalent) and KPI reporting discipline

- Non-negotiable: Prior remote work experience; fluent with remote collaboration tools (Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace, Asana/ClickUp or similar) and ideally experience working with US or UK-based companies—applications without this will not be considered.

Preferred Qualifications

- Experience supporting multi-business or portfolio operators

- Working knowledge of CRM + marketing ops workflows (email sequences, tagging, lead routing)

- Exposure to real estate development or home services operations

Tools & Technology ClickUp/Asana, Google Workspace, Slack/Zoom, Airtable/Google Sheets, CRM (HubSpot/GoHighLevel/Salesforce or similar), Zapier/Make, AI tools for writing/automation (e.g., ChatGPT)

Why it works

3×

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.
