Executive Assistant to CTO (Hybrid)
KnowBe4 · Clearwater, FL · 3 days ago
Full-time
Responsibilities
- Strategic Time Management: Actively "manage up" to protect the CTO’s time. Filter requests, push back on overcommitments, and confidently say "no" to meetings that do not align with core priorities.
- Problem Solving & Execution: Independently untangle complex or disorganized situations, creating actionable plans and recommendations without requiring hand-holding.
- Leadership Team Support: Act as a force multiplier not just for the CTO, but for their front-line team of approximately five direct reports—balancing micro-priorities for the CTO with macro-support for the wider team.
- Operations Partnership: Partner closely with the Engineering Operations lead to align on workflow, team logistics, and the CTO’s operational style.
- Discretion & Governance: Handle highly sensitive, confidential materials regarding organizational design, compensation topics, board matters, and personal logistics with flawless judgment.
- Communication & Logistics: Manage the CTO's rapid communication flow, including inbox routing, schedule optimization, complex travel coordination, and meeting preparation.
- Team Dynamics: Coordinate team-building activities and smooth cross-functional logistics across the technology sector.
Qualifications
- Minimum 2 years of experience in a fast-paced environment where you owned project coordination, scheduling logistics, or operational workflows.
- Prior exposure to data-centric environments (such as finance, analytics, or operations tracking) where you had to manage numbers, track budgets, or interface with sensitive details.
- Bachelor’s degree preferred, but not required. A background in Engineering, Business, or STEM fields is a major plus—we love systems-thinkers who enjoy building order out of chaos.
- Proficient in Smartsheet, Microsoft Office (excel, powerpoint), and Docusign/Adobe sign.
- A Notary Public certification would be an added plus.
