Job description

Our CEO leads across three dimensions simultaneously: client relationships, internal firm leadership, and external-facing strategic work. The EA to the CEO supports all three — and does so by actively managing the CEO’s bandwidth, not just their calendar.

What We're Looking For

We are building something different. M+M is a firm where collaboration is how we actually work — not a value on a poster. There is no internal competition, no origination credit, no reward for going it alone. Clients belong to the firm. Success is shared. We treat every member of our team as a meaningful contributor and invest in their growth accordingly. If that sounds like the kind of place you want to build your career, we’d like to talk.

What that looks like in practice:

• Organizing and teeing up the CEO’s prioritized tasks
• Keeping the CEO from becoming a bottleneck
• Redirecting requests for the CEO’s time that can and should be handled by another team member
• Owning the CEO’s calendar end-to-end
• Drafting and managing correspondence on the CEO’s behalf
• Supporting client-facing commitments with the same care and discretion the CEO brings directly
• Coordinating internal leadership logistics, external engagements, and special projects as needed

What we are actually looking for:

• Has supported a senior executive, C-suite leader, or principal and know what it takes to manage a high-complexity leader
• You anticipate needs before they’re expressed and surface problems with proposed
  solutions
• Exercise sound judgment about what requires the CEO’s attention
• Communicate with clarity and professionalism in writing
• Handle sensitive information with complete discretion
• Bring warmth and genuine care to every interaction — with clients, attorneys, and support staff alike
• Are aligned with how we operate: collaboratively, with humility, and in service ofsomething larger than yourself
