FINNY · New York, NY · 3 wk ago
On-siteAdministrative$100k–$120k/yrFull-time

FINNY is a growth platform for financial advisors on a mission to make great financial advice easier to find. We’ve raised $21.5M (Seed and Series A led by Venrock) and work with over 1,000 firms across the wealth-management ecosystem. Recognized as the leader in fintech innovation—#1 at the Morningstar Fintech Showcase, #1 at the 2025 Wealthies—we’re based in Chelsea, NYC, building fast, ambitious systems at the intersection of data, AI, and real-world wealth services.

About The Team

This is the first hire that sits at the center of our Founders at FINNY, directly supporting our three co-founders as they lead the company through an exciting period of growth. The role will own the operational backbone that keeps leadership running at full speed—calendars, travel, office operations, and day-to-day logistics—acting as a connective layer between the founders and every internal function.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end calendar management for all three co-founders, including scheduling, prioritization, and resolving conflicts across time zones
  • Plan and book all founder travel—flights, hotels, ground transportation, visas, and detailed itineraries—and travel alongside founders when needed
  • Manage day-to-day office operations: ordering supplies, food, snacks, and catering for team meals and events
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for office vendors, building management, and facilities as FINNY expands to new locations
  • Anticipate founder needs and proactively solve problems before they escalate—from prep materials for key meetings to last-minute logistics
  • Coordinate internal and external meetings, including board meetings, team offsites, and executive dinners
  • Support special projects and company initiatives as directed by the founders

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Chief of Staff, Coordinator, or Office Manager, ideally supporting C-suite or founder-level executives
  • Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to juggle competing priorities without dropping the ball
  • Strong communication skills—professional, clear, and confident with both internal teams and external partners
  • Demonstrated ability to exercise sound judgment and handle sensitive information with discretion
  • Comfortable with frequent travel and flexibility around founders' schedules, including occasional evenings or weekends
  • Proactive self-starter who thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and doesn’t wait to be told what to do

Nice to Have

  • Prior experience at a startup or high-growth company where roles evolve quickly
  • Experience managing office buildouts or supporting physical expansion to new locations
  • Familiarity with executive travel tools, expense platforms, or office management software (e.g., Concur, Ramp, Notion)
  • Experience supporting multiple executives simultaneously across different working styles

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible paid time off
  • 401(k)
  • Food and meals provided in our NYC office
  • Team offsites and events
