Executive Business Partner

About the role

This is not a traditional EA role. The Executive Business Partner to our SVP of Revenue Strategy, Operations & Account Development operates as a trusted extension of executive leadership — equal parts strategic operator, project manager, and thought partner. You will sit at the center of a large, fast-moving Revenue Strategy, Operations & Account Development organization and use your judgment, initiative, and influence to keep the VP and her team running at peak velocity.

What You'll Own

• Executive presence & flow — Manage the VP's calendar, communications, and daily operating rhythm with a level of foresight that makes her feel three steps ahead.
• Complex travel & logistics — Plan and book multi-leg domestic and international travel (~1 trip/month), anticipating buffers, prep materials, and regional stakeholder touchpoints before they're requested.
• Stakeholder management — Act as a trusted liaison to senior leaders, investors, and cross-functional partners internally and externally; you represent Christine in every interaction.
• Operational continuity — Own expenses, team meeting agendas, action item tracking, and the behind-the-scenes coordination that keeps a large org accountable and moving.
• Events & onsites — Lead planning and execution of team onsites, offsites, and executive events with high attention to detail and a sharp instinct for what makes the experience feel intentional.
• Special projects — Take on high-impact, time-sensitive projects that cut across the org — from preparing exec briefings to driving cross-functional initiatives on the VP's behalf.
• Culture carrier — Champion Samsara's operating principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) and model them every day.

Must-haves

• 6+ years of experience supporting VP-level or above executives in a fast-paced environment
• Proven ability to operate with discretion, sound judgment, and high EQ in sensitive or ambiguous situations
• Exceptional communication skills — you write, speak, and represent with polish and precision
• A track record of building systems and processes that scale, not just executing tasks
• Ability to maintain San Francisco business hours (Pacific Time), regardless of location
• Flexibility to travel approximately once per month for onsites and executive support

Nice-to-haves
