We are seeking a high-level Executive Assistant who will act as a strategic partner and right hand to a top-performing luxury real estate advisor. This individual will play a critical role in protecting time, driving priorities, and ensuring seamless execution across all aspects of the business.

The ideal candidate is proactive, highly organized, detail-obsessed, and capable of operating with speed and sound judgment in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.

This role requires someone who doesn’t wait for direction—but instead anticipates needs, solves problems before they arise, and continuously improves systems and workflows.

• Prepare briefs, meeting notes, and deal summaries to keep all parties aligned

Operations & Process Optimization

• Build, implement, and refine systems and processes to improve efficiency and scalability
• Oversee transaction timelines, ensuring all deadlines and deliverables are met seamlessly
• Identify bottlenecks and proactively create solutions

Client Experience & Relationship Management

• Help deliver a white-glove, Ritz-Carlton-level experience across all client touchpoints
• Coordinate showings, presentations, and client interactions with precision and attention to detail
• Maintain and strengthen relationships with high-level clientele and industry professionals

Marketing & Brand Execution

• Coordinate and manage marketing initiatives in collaboration with design and marketing partners
• Assist in executing listing launches, email campaigns, and social media strategy
• Ensure brand consistency and elevated presentation across all platforms

Project & Listing Management

• Oversee listing preparation, presentations, and go-to-market execution
• Create and manage showing schedules and client itineraries
• Assist with market research and presentation development

CRM & Data Management

• Develop, maintain, and optimize CRM systems to track relationships and opportunities
• Ensure consistent follow-up and database integrity

Events & Personal Support

• Coordinate client events, open houses, and special initiatives
• Handle select personal tasks to support overall efficiency and time management

Who You Are

• Highly proactive with the ability to anticipate needs and think several steps ahead
• Exceptional organizational and time management skills
• Strong written and verbal communication; able to represent the principal with professionalism
• Detail-oriented with a commitment to excellence
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-performance environment
• Discreet, trustworthy, and capable of handling confidential information
• Tech-savvy and systems-oriented
• Flexible and adaptable, with availability beyond standard business hours when needed

Why This Role

This is a unique opportunity to work alongside a top-tier luxury real estate professional and gain exposure to high-level deals, clients, and business strategy. The role offers significant growth potential for someone looking to operate at a high level and be deeply involved in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment.
