Discord is a voice, video and text app that helps friends and communities come together to talk and hang out.
The Role

Discord is used by over 200 million people every month for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does on our platform: play video games. Over 90% of our users play games, spending a combined 1.5 billion hours playing thousands of unique titles on Discord each month. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming. We are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to talk and hang out before, during, and after playing games.

I’ve always loved smooth things. Put me in a room filled with satin, butter, and smooth jazz, and I may never come out. It’s only fitting that my life’s work would come down to being the person that ensures a business is running like a well-oiled machine. If this is your calling, then please read on! Discord is looking to hire a Senior Administrative Business Partner to support our Chief Business Officer. This role will require a high level of adaptability, but with the help of our Senior ABP Manager as your guide, we believe you will create order in the chaos.


What You'll Be Doing (including, but not limited to)

  • Acting as a strategic business partner to Discord's Chief Business Officer, Jules Shumaker, and supporting 2 of her Directors
  • Maintaining our CBO's calendar, and making recommendations in regard to time management, prioritization, and needs of the business
  • Ensuring the CBO is prepared for upcoming meetings, presentations, conferences, and projects by proactively gathering the necessary materials
  • Contributing to team and org meetings and onsites by assisting and sometimes leading the planning, taking notes, and ensuring action items are completed
  • Finding new and efficient ways to help maximize our CBO's time, particularly acting as a "goalie" for their calendar who ruthlessly prioritizes their meeting requests
  • Working with our travel and events teams, you'll book domestic and international travel, ensuring travel policies are followed and proper documentation is acquired (visas, conference passes, etc). Occasionally, you may travel with the CBO for large conferences
  • Partnering with several internal departments to ensure cross-functional alignment on projects and internal events
  • Processing all expenses for the CBO and assisting with procurement requests as needed

What you should have

  • You are a highly motivated, organized individual with strong attention to detail who is able to work effectively and prioritize with minimal supervision
  • You have clear written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to communicate with all levels of leadership and external partners
  • You are a strong multi-tasker with an appreciation for the challenges of supporting a busy team with diverse personalities in a hybrid and remote working environment
  • You have the ability to prioritize and handle multiple assignments at any given time while anticipating the needs of others
  • You have strong relationship management skills, the ability to build a personal network throughout the company, and the ability to work with a variety of personalities. You also know how to push back and set boundaries with kindness
  • You have experience performing administrative work that requires analysis, initiative, and discretion
  • You are able to adapt in response to changing priorities and needs
  • You have a passion to learn and contribute
  • You have the ability to manage your bandwidth and speak up if you have too much on your plate

Qualifications

  • Highly proficient in G-Suite, notably GCal and GMail
  • 5+ years of work experience in an administrative support role, particularly VP+ roles within a Business or Sales org
  • Experience with Asana, Notion, and Discord

Bonus Points

  • Prior experience working in a hyper-growth environment
  • Prior experience working in a gaming company or startup

Within the range, individual pay is determined by additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.

What We Do

Discord is a voice, video and text app that helps friends and communities come together to hang out and explore their interests — from artists and activists, to study groups, sneakerheads, plant parents, and more. With 150 million monthly users across 19 million active communities, called servers, Discord has grown to become one of the most popular communications services in the world. Discord was built without selling ads or user data and instead, offers a premium subscription called Nitro that gives users special perks like higher quality streams and fun customizations.

Why Work With Us

Imagine a workplace that not only tolerates but celebrates the unique perspectives each and every person brings to it. One that is representative of the world we want to live, play and work in. Well, imagine no more. Just as Discord gives everyone the power to belong, we are building a workplace that is welcoming and inclusive from the inside out.
