About COMMAND
COMMAND is a strategic communications firm trusted by builders. We partner with visionary founders tackling the world's biggest challenges through innovative technology and disruptive business models, from high-growth startups to leading venture capital firms. Our team brings formative experience in-house, at startups, and in journalism. We combine the reach and discipline of traditional communications with the strategic mindset, rigor, and speed of early-stage operators. As COMMAND continues to grow, we're looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to partner closely with our co-founders and leadership team.
Who We’re Looking For
- Thrives in fast-paced environments with lots of moving pieces
- Genuinely enjoys bringing order to chaos
- Anticipates what's around the corner and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks
- Works alongside ambitious, kind people who move quickly, care deeply about their work, and celebrate each other's wins
What You'll Do
- Partner closely with COMMAND's co-founders and Chief of Staff to manage complex calendars, shifting priorities, and high-impact projects.
- Act as a trusted thought partner by helping prioritize competing demands and ensuring the founders are focused on the highest-impact work.
- Stay one step ahead by anticipating needs, solving problems proactively, and bringing clarity to an environment with lots of moving pieces.
- Drive important firm-wide initiatives by following up on action items, coordinating across teams, and ensuring projects continue moving forward.
- Own the logistics that keep the business running smoothly, from leadership meetings and travel to company events and internal planning, executing with precision and attention to detail.
- Bring order to a fast-moving, Slack-first environment where priorities evolve quickly, communication is direct, and no two days look the same.
- Jump into new challenges as the company grows, taking on projects and responsibilities that may not fit neatly into a traditional Executive Assistant role.
What You Bring
- 5+ years of experience supporting senior executives, founders, or leadership teams in a fast-paced startup, agency, consulting, venture capital, or technology environment.
- Exceptional organizational skills with an ability to juggle multiple priorities without losing attention to detail.
- Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong judgment and discretion when handling important email.
- A natural sense of urgency and belief that every minute counts, with the ability to quickly prioritize what matters most.
- High emotional intelligence and the ability to build trusted relationships across every level of the organization.
- Comfort working in Slack as a primary communication tool and operating in a highly collaborative, fast-moving environment where priorities can shift quickly.
- A bias toward action. You don't need perfect instructions—you figure things out and keep moving.
- Curiosity, resourcefulness, and a genuine desire to make the people around you more effective.
