About the Company

GSM Virtual Assistants is partnering with a growing IT staffing and consulting firm to find a seasoned Executive Assistant to support their dynamic CEO. This is a direct hire with the company and presents a unique opportunity to become a long-term strategic partner to a visionary leader in the tech space.

About the Role

We're seeking an experienced, polished, and proactive Executive Assistant who can act as a true right hand to the CEO. This is not an entry-level role— a minimum of 5+ years supporting C-level executives is required, preferably in the tech, consulting, or finance sectors. The ideal candidate will bring a mix of executive assistant expertise with the flexibility to handle personal tasks as needed.

The CEO is looking for a trusted partner, someone who is both tactical and strategic, deeply reliable, and able to keep pace with a high-performing, fast-moving executive.

Key Responsibilities

• Executive & Personal Support
• High-volume calendar management and meeting coordination
• Travel planning – both personal and business, domestic and international
• Expense reconciliation and reporting
• Coordination of personal tasks and errands as needed
• Supporting the CEO across both executive functions and lifestyle logistics

Operational Efficiency

• Acting as a liaison between the CEO and key internal/external stakeholders
• Helping ensure priorities are managed, follow-ups are executed, and nothing falls through the cracks
• Handling confidential information with a high level of discretion

Who You Are

• Experienced and polished – you’ve been in boardrooms and understand C-suite dynamics
• Self-motivated and solutions-oriented – you don’t wait to be told what to do
• Exceptionally organized and detail-oriented – multitasking is second nature to you
• Calm under pressure – nothing rattles you, even on the busiest days
• Forward-thinking – you anticipate needs, manage priorities, and keep things running smoothly
• Looking for longevity – you want to grow with a business, not just do the job

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience supporting C-level executives
• Background in tech, staffing, or finance preferred
• Experience managing complex calendars and travel itineraries
• Based in the El Segundo, CA area (office near Rosecrans Ave)
• Availability to work 3–4 days in office / 1 day remote weekly
• Strong communication and client-facing skills
• Discretion, reliability, and follow-through are a must

If you’re ready to step into a high-impact role where your attention to detail, problem-solving, and professionalism will be valued every single day, we want to hear from you. This is your chance to partner directly with the CEO of a thriving tech consulting firm and be a key force behind its continued success.
