We are on a mission to elevate how leaders think, design, and deliver value — and to expand the reach of our Value eXcelerator™ workshops, advisory programs, and thought leadership platforms.

This role exists to power the engine of awareness behind our workshops, events, content, and thought leadership.

You'll love coming to work every day if you get, want and have the capacity to :

  • Manage complex calendars, prioritize competing demands, and coordinate meetings with precision.
  • Book and optimize executive travel (flights, hotels, itineraries) with attention to comfort, cost, and energy preservation.
  • Filter communication, flag what matters most, and ensure the executive is only focused on what moves the needle.
  • Handle special projects and operational support that help the business run better.
  • Prepare materials for meetings and follow-ups, including agendas, research, and recaps.
  • Think and operate like a second brain—anticipating needs and managing details before they surface.
  • Be available for in-person working sessions 2–4 times per month and in sync with Pacific Time hours.

In this role, you'll be accountable to hit the following outcomes :

  • Maintain 95%+ scheduling and logistics accuracy with no surprises.

  • Travel plans confirmed 5+ days before departure (unless exceptions arise).
  • Response time to urgent items within 1 business hour (during agreed working hours).
  • Keep admin and ops task completion rate above 90% weekly.

Strong applicants will have the following qualifications :

  • 5+ years supporting senior executives or founders—ideally in fast-paced, high-growth, or startup environments.
  • Exceptional organizational skills with demonstrated ability to handle complex and dynamic priorities.
  • High Follow Thru (Kolbe 6-8) and strong situational awareness. You thrive in bringing order to rapid change.
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to make decisions independently and prioritize without constant oversight.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills—direct, clear, and professional.
  • Demonstrated ability to handle confidential information with discretion and emotional intelligence.
  • Comfortable using tools like Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, Asana, or similar platforms.
