Job Description Summary 

The Executive Assistant, People & Culture is a highly trusted strategic partner supporting three leaders within the People & Culture organization and reporting directly to the Chief People Officer. This role goes beyond traditional administrative support and requires someone who can anticipate needs, connect dots, solve problems, and help leaders operate effectively in a fast-paced and constantly evolving environment.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, resourceful, and comfortable navigating ambiguity and competing priorities. They thrive in an environment where plans can change quickly, maintain composure when things get chaotic, and use strong critical thinking and sound judgment to determine the best path forward without always needing step-by-step direction.

This role is more than traditional executive support. As an Executive Assistant to three senior executives within the People & Culture team, you will operate as a strategic partner who helps each leader maximize their time, stay ahead of priorities, and navigate competing demands. Success requires exceptional judgment, anticipation, and the confidence to make decisions, solve problems, and respectfully challenge priorities when needed.

Success in this role requires the ability to understand the broader business context behind requests, identify potential issues before they become problems, and proactively recommend solutions. The Executive Assistant will regularly partner with leaders and teams across the organization and must demonstrate strong discretion, professionalism, relationship-building skills, and the ability to manage sensitive and confidential information.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on organized chaos, enjoys solving complex problems, can seamlessly shift between strategic priorities and tactical execution, and takes pride in creating structure and clarity in a dynamic environment. Rather than simply managing tasks, this person will serve as a strategic extension of the leaders they support, helping the People & Culture team operate efficiently, stay aligned, and execute against its priorities.
