This is a “get it done” role for someone who is naturally resourceful, solution-oriented, and energized by complex, fast-moving work. You’ll help senior leaders stay focused on what matters most by anticipating needs, removing friction, and moving work forward with confidence and discretion. Strong written communication and relationship-building skills are essential. You’ll represent executives, shape internal and external messaging, and build trusted relationships across the organization.

  • Support execution of executive team meetings, leadership meetings, and internal and external events
  • Assist with planning and coordination of executive dinners and team events
  • Begin partnering with People & Culture, Sales, and Marketing teams to understand workflows and expectations

  • Ramp up to supporting 3–4 executives effectively and confidently 
  • Anticipate executive needs with minimal direction 
  • Own calendars, meetings, and communications end-to-end for supported leaders 
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for executive logistics and coordination 
  • Take ownership of planning and execution for: 
  • Executive team dinners and offsites 
  • Industry events and related client, partner, and team social engagements 
  • Partner closely with Sales and Marketing to strategically support industry conferences and events 
  • Collaborate with People & Culture on leadership meetings, internal communications, and culture initiatives 
  • Identify inefficiencies and propose improvements to executive workflows and processes 
  • Be recognized as a reliable, solution-oriented partner who gets things done 

By the end of the first year you will have

  • Operate as a trusted, strategic partner to executive leaders 
  • Fully own executive operating rhythms, planning cadence, and coordination across teams 
  • Plan and execute high-profile internal and external events, including board meetings, team offsites, and customer-facing events, ensuring a seamless, high-quality experience 
  • Represent executives confidently in cross-functional interactions and external engagements 
  • Drive cross-functional alignment by connecting People, Sales, Marketing, Product, and Engineering teams 
  • Own recurring leadership processes and executive-level initiatives 
  • Lead special projects tied to company-wide priorities 
  • Help define and scale executive support and operations as VEIR grows 
  • Demonstrate readiness to take on broader Executive Operations leadership responsibilities 

To be successful in this role

  • 5+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant or in a similar role 
  • Experience supporting multiple leaders and managing competing priorities 
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate clearly in writing and verbally 
  • Experience partnering with HR, Sales, Marketing, or supporting events is a strong plus 
  • High proficiency with calendar tools, email, and productivity software 

You are: 

  • A strong written communicator who can represent leaders clearly and professionally 
  • A natural relationship builder who earns trust quickly 
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and dependable 
  • Resourceful and solutions-focused—you see possibilities, not problems 
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and changing priorities 
  • Discreet, thoughtful, and confident working with senior leaders
