Executive Business Partner

About the role

The Executive Business Partner (EBP) provides direct executive support to the CMO and ensures the operational cadence of the Marketing organization is clear, aligned, and prioritized. You will be the trusted owner of the CMO’s time, information flow, and day-to-day operating rhythm — operating at the intersection of a high-visibility C-suite function and a fast-moving go-to-market organization.

Responsibilities

• Prepare and consolidate materials for key meetings so your leader is well-briefed and able to focus on strategy rather than catching up in real time.
• Track action items and decisions from leadership meetings, proactively following up with owners to drive completion and reinforce accountability.
• Cook up logistics and execution for team events, all-hands meetings, board preparation cycles, and external appearances — including high-visibility moments tied to the CMO’s external presence (e.g., conferences, analyst briefings, earnings-adjacent activities).
• Serve as the primary point of contact and gatekeeper for the CMO, triaging inbound requests with sound judgment and a deep understanding of their priorities — protecting their time and attention with confidence while maintaining trust with the people who need access.
• Ensure the day-to-day and week-to-week schedule is logical, manageable, and aligned with the leader's stated priorities.

Requirements

• Exceptionally organized and detail-oriented — you manage high volumes of information, logistics, and context without dropping the ball.
• An excellent communicator — strong written and verbal skills; you convey complex information clearly, tailor your message to the audience, and represent your leader with professionalism.
• Relationship-driven and highly trustworthy — known for discretion, sound judgment, and the ability to handle sensitive information and dynamics with care.
• A reliable gatekeeper — you protect your leader's time and attention with confidence, filtering noise without creating friction for the people who need access.
• Proactive and resourceful — you anticipate needs, flag risks early, and propose solutions rather than waiting to be told what to do.
• Calm under pressure — you operate effectively in a fast-paced, sometimes ambiguous environment and don't require the leader to manage your stress.
• Technically curious — advanced in Google Workspace and collaboration tools; actively experimenting with AI to improve your own productivity.
• Growth-minded — you seek feedback, learn from each planning cycle or event, and are actively building toward the next level of executive partnership.

Qualifications

• A high school diploma or equivalent required; Bachelor's degree preferred.
• 2+ years of experience in an executive assistant, business partner, project coordination, or similar role supporting senior leaders in a fast-paced environment (high-growth tech/SaaS strongly preferred).
• Demonstrated experience managing complex calendars, travel, and events, including executive offsites or large team meetings.
• Track record of building trust with leaders and exercising sound judgment in the handling of sensitive information and competing demands.

Skills

• Advanced proficiency in Google Workspace and collaboration tools (e.g., Slack, project management software).
• Strong curiosity for AI tools, experimenting with them for basic tasks like summarizing notes and drafting communications.
• Basic data analysis (spreadsheets, dashboards) to track project or operational metrics and provide clear, accessible views.

Benefits

• Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
• Must be available to support events and meetings outside of standard business hours; C-suite support roles carry predictable high-demand moments including board preparation cycles, executive offsites, major company events, and earnings-adjacent periods.

Pay

• $84,000—$126,000 USD

Schedule

• Varies based on the needs of the role and the company.
