Job description

Waymo is an autonomous driving technology company with the mission to be the most trusted driver. Since its start as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009, Waymo has focused on building the Waymo Driver—The World's Most Experienced Driver—to improve access to mobility while saving thousands of lives now lost to traffic crashes. The Waymo Driver powers Waymo One, a fully autonomous ride-hailing service, and can also be applied to a range of vehicle platforms and product use cases. The Waymo Driver has provided over one million rider-only trips, enabled by its experience autonomously driving tens of millions of miles on public roads and tens of billions in simulation across 13+ U.S. states.

Wherever Waymo works, Business Support teams are on the job. We're the partners who plan events, work with external partners, and orchestrate the daily activities of our teams and leaders, the real estate specialists who find and build amazing workspaces and research facilities, and the systems experts who develop and run our intuitive IT and business tools. Together, we do everything it takes to keep Waymo rolling.

• Autonomously deliver essential administrative functions, including travel, expenses, confidential calendaring, and facilities coordination.
• Proactively solve problems, exercising excellent judgment and discretion even with limited information.
• Collaborate and build trust with executives, partners (e.g., HR, Finance, CoS), and teams across the organization to achieve complex objectives.
• Utilize strong communication and interpersonal skills to build partnership, influence collaboration, and engage effectively with diverse internal and external stakeholders.
• Lead and deliver medium-to-large-scale projects or events from initiation through completion.
  
  

You Have

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
• 5+ years of experience providing executive support, project management, or event planning to senior leaders (VP+) within a fast-paced technology or startup environment.
• Exceptional organizational, time management, and prioritization skills.
• Proven ability to build strong relationships, collaborate effectively across diverse teams/functions, and maintain strict confidentiality.
• Experience managing complex scheduling and logistics with external partners, demonstrating responsiveness, flexibility, and sound judgment with confidentiality.
• Proven ability to lead projects, manage processes, and independently resolve operational issues through strategic thinking and data analysis.
