• Resolve calendar conflicts proactively, ensuring appropriate buffer times, meeting prep windows, and travel logistics are accounted for.
• Manage executive inbox triage—monitoring incoming messages, prioritizing urgent requests, drafting routine correspondence, and organizing action threads.

• Build detailed, step-by-step travel playbooks and digital itineraries accessible across mobile devices.
• Manage logistics for executive board meetings, team retreats, dinners, and special corporate events.
• Provide real-time travel troubleshooting and schedule adjustments during transit.

• Oversee personal errands, online shopping, return logistics, gift sourcing, and special event bookings for the executive and family.
• Coordinate property maintenance, household vendor services, contractors, and recurring utility/maintenance schedules.
• Track personal renewal dates, memberships, insurance policies, vehicle maintenance, and family appointments.
• Assist with personal expense tracking, receipt collation, invoice reconciliation, and basic budgeting documentation.

Project Coordination & AI Workflow Optimization

• Track open action items, project deadlines, and deliverable commitments across active business ventures and executive initiatives.
• Utilize modern AI productivity platforms (such as Claude or ChatGPT) to draft communications, summarize lengthy reports, research vendors, and streamline administrative tasks.
• Maintain organized digital file structures, cloud storage libraries, and standardized operating procedures (SOPs).
• Author concise meeting summaries, capture key decision points, and follow up with responsible team members to ensure execution.

Required Qualifications

• 2–5 years of professional experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or High-Level Virtual Assistant supporting senior executives, founders, or business owners.
• Exceptional written and verbal English communication skills with high professional poise, emotional intelligence, and discretion.

• High proficiency with modern scheduling and document platforms (Google Workspace, Microsoft Outlook, Office Suite).
• Demonstrated experience coordinating complex domestic/international travel itineraries and personal concierge logistics.
• Proven ability to handle highly confidential, sensitive business and personal information with complete integrity.
• High level of resourcefulness and composure when managing last-minute schedule changes or unexpected operational issues.
