Provide proactive, end-to-end executive support to 2–3 founders: manage complex calendars, travel and expenses, triage communications, plan and execute offsites/events, prepare decks and briefing materials, track follow-ups, and liaise with internal and external stakeholders to remove administrative bottlenecks.
About the Client
Our client is a well-funded, VC-backed technology company building advanced robotics and autonomy for the construction industry. Led by seasoned leaders from top autonomous systems teams, they are accelerating how the world builds critical infrastructure. The company operates at the intersection of AI, robotics, and construction, scaling fast in a high-stakes, execution-focused environment.
Why does this role exist?
The executive team needs a senior-level EA who can immediately expand leadership capacity and eliminate administrative bottlenecks. Their current admin support is overextended, and junior-level help has proven insufficient for the complexity and pace of the work. This role exists to provide proactive, independent, end-to-end executive support—especially calendar operations, complex travel, expense rigor, communications, and full ownership of team offsites—so founders can stay focused on strategy and execution.
The Impact you’ll make

Travel and Expense Management
- Manage end-to-end travel (flights, hotels, ground) with complete itineraries and contingency planning

Event and Offsite Ownership

Documents, Projects, and Stakeholder Support
- Draft and format slide decks and documents to professional standards

- Coordinate board/investor scheduling, gift logistics, relationship tracking, and cross-functional follow-ups
