  • Build Coordination Across the Office of the CEO.
    • Partner closely with the Chief of Staff to the CEO, Head of People, and broader administrative and leadership teams to maintain clear ownership and continuity across professional and personal priorities.

  • Demonstrated success managing complex calendars, competing demands, executive communications, personal coordination, and rapidly shifting priorities.
  • Experience managing complex, multi-leg domestic and international travel, including accompanying an executive when required.
  • Exceptional organizational and project-management skills, with strong attention to detail across executive-level matters and hands-on personal requests.
  • Strong business judgment, discretion, and the ability to assess urgency, make thoughtful tradeoffs, and act with minimal direction.
  • Polished written and verbal communication skills, emotional intelligence, and the ability to build trust with senior internal and external stakeholders.
  • Ability to work out of the San Francisco & Palo Alto office 5 days per week, support irregular hours when necessary, and travel domestically and internationally based on business needs.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience supporting a founder, CEO, senior executive, entrepreneur, high-profile individual, or private office.
  • Experience supporting a principal in technology, finance, luxury hospitality, travel, a family or private office, or another high-intensity environment.
