• Coordinate with Development staff before scheduling the CEO with their prospects.
• Deliver briefing packets 48 hours before meetings, draft follow-ups within 48 hours, log interactions in the CRM within 2 business days, and track CEO commitments to completion.

Executive Support

• Manage and protect the CEO's calendar and inbox; triage requests and route communications.
• Capture the CEO's ideas and priorities and relay them clearly to the COO; track follow-through.
• Draft executive correspondence, memos, board letters, and donor communications.
• Arrange CEO travel and process expense reports.
