Office Manager
About the role
This role combines Office Manager responsibilities with Executive Assistant support for one C-level executive (Chief People Officer). The right candidate will be the go-to person for keeping the Hoboken office running efficiently day to day, while also providing dedicated, high-touch support to a senior executive. This position is based in the office five days a week, as many of the responsibilities require an on-site presence. The ideal candidate takes ownership of both sides of the role without needing much oversight.
