Job summary

Gradient, a creatively led experiential marketing agency in NYC, seeks an Executive Assistant to work directly with the Founder and drive every aspect they touch. You’ll own the Founder’s time, prep briefings, coordinate events, and manage travel.

Fluent English and French are required to support clients on both sides of the Atlantic. Based in NYC, you’ll thrive on variety and anticipate needs before they’re asked.

Qualifications

  • 1–3+ years in coordination, executive support, operations, or sales support.
  • Fluent in English and French, spoken and written (required).
  • Based in NYC (required).
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and relentless about follow-through.
  • Proactive — you anticipate needs rather than wait to be asked.

Responsibilities

  • Be a true extension of the Founder — managing priorities, follow-through, and the details that keep everything moving.
  • Support business development: research prospects, coordinate outreach, and track opportunities in HubSpot or Salesforce.
  • Plan events end-to-end, from a NYC client gathering to a dinner in Paris.
  • Help move the Founder's writing projects from research to finished draft.
  • Handle travel — bookings, itineraries, and the logistics that make trips easy.
  • Prep the Founder for meetings and pitches with the right materials and context.
  • Take on personal and logistical tasks that free up the Founder’s time.
  • Keep track of action items across every workstream so nothing slips.
