About the Company

Our client is a boutique advisory firm that partners with major global brands to translate cultural insight into stronger, more resonant marketing, content, and audience strategy.

The person in this seat will manage day-to-day scheduling, travel, and priorities for a highly visible principal, while also partnering closely with the creative team to help produce and coordinate content.

The role reports directly to the CEO, with close day-to-day collaboration with the operations lead.

• Capture, edit, and organize photo and video content at events and key moments
• Draft and organize written content supporting the CEO's public-facing work
• Act as a first point of contact in meetings and events, protecting the CEO's time and attention
• Anticipate what a pitch, meeting, or initiative will require and proactively prepare for it
• Build relationships with key stakeholders and partners on the CEO's behalf
• Manage day-to-day communication and follow-through across a small, fast-moving team

Qualifications

• Experience supporting a founder, executive, or other high-visibility principal is required
• Demonstrated ability to operate proactively and make confident decisions with minimal oversight
• Comfortable in high-level, executive-facing environments
• Working knowledge of Canva or similar design tools, is a plus
• Experience with light photo or video editing, is a plus
• Based in or near Los Angeles, within approximately one hour of the work location
• Naturally relational, with strong interpersonal instincts and sound judgment about boundaries
• Fast, independent learner who can adapt to new systems and processes quickly
• Background in production, entertainment, agency, or a similarly fast-paced environment is an asset
• Genuine interest in content and creative work, without requiring formal content-creation experience

Compensation range: $100,000–$110,000, commensurate with experience. Comprehensive health benefits and 401(k) with employer contribution.
