Strategic Executive Assistant to the CEO

The Vision

At AI Leadership, we believe in clarity, structure, and well-run operations that allow our team to focus on the work that creates the greatest impact. The Strategic EA role exists to provide end-to-end leverage to the CEO by owning tactical and operational execution: inbox, calendar, logistics, and meeting prep. We are looking for a \"thinking partner\" who can maintain the highest standards of operational excellence and brand representation.

Who We’re Looking For

The Strategic Executive Assistant (EA) will act as the CEO's \"20% focus\" unlock, allowing him to drive 80% of business outcomes. This is not a role for someone who only follows rigid rules; we need an individual who can operate with nuance, anticipate needs before they are stated, and understand the CEO's unique decision-making framework. You will be measured on your ability to triage the CEO's inbox to 95% without escalation and reduce calendar friction to near-zero. If you are a high-nuance individual who \"just gets it\" and thrives in a fast-paced environment, this role is for you.

Why You Should Join Us

AI Frontier : Gain direct exposure to the AI space and learn to build and refine AI-driven automation. Career Growth : We are a growing organization that values internal mobility; this role has a path toward operations or management, as demonstrated by previous incumbents. High-Impact Environment : Work alongside experienced leaders who prioritize growth, ambition, and proactive problem-solving.

Role Responsibilities

The 20% That Drives 80% of Success Inbox Ownership : Manage the CEO's inbox end-to-end, responding to all messages within 24 hours using his tone and zero \"emotional leakage\". Strategic Calendar Defense : Own the calendar to ensure it reflects strategic priorities; proactively identify gaps or blockers and coordinate with the family assistant to honor personal time. Flawless Travel & Logistics : Execute end-to-end travel (flights, hotels, ground transport) and remain on-call for any transit issues. Meeting Readiness : Maintain prep docs and ensure the CEO is fully prepared for every internal and external stakeholder interaction. The Remaining 80% HubSpot & CRM Maintenance : Review deals weekly, ensure follow-up tasks are executed on time, and load new contacts sourced by the CEO. SOP & Notion Management : Fully own and update all CEO-related workflows and databases, ensuring documentation is audit-ready and searchable. Small-Scope Project Management : Lead projects assigned by the Exec Ops Manager, assessing needs, developing plans, and communicating status to stakeholders.

Skills & Attributes We're Looking For

Methodical & Nuanced : You understand the difference between tactical execution and strategic decision-making and can operate independently in ambiguous situations. 1–3 Years of Relevant Experience : Ideally supporting senior leaders or working in high-growth, corporate, or communications-heavy environments. Proactive Tech-Savviness : Proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, HubSpot (or similar CRMs), and Notion, plus a strong drive to use AI tools for speed and efficiency. Executive Presence : You have a professional audio/video setup and communicate with the polish required for CEO-facing interactions. Coachability : You believe feedback is the \"breakfast of champions\" and iterate quickly based on guidance.
