Description du poste

Role: CG Executive Assistant 66936203911

Priority Location: South Africa and Latin America

Working Hours: 9 am - 6 pm (Mon - Fri) US CST - with some weekend hours (responsive and available during the weekends; 55 hours per week required)

Salary Range: USD 4000 per month (The final offer is at the client’s discretion and depends on the candidate’s interview results, skills, and experience.)

Type of contract: Independent Contractor

Type of job: Remote

Sector: Investment firm, media company, and business education platform

About the Role:

You will be the operational backbone driving one of the fastest-growing media powerhouses in the world. Working directly with the founder and executive leadership, you won't just manage calendars—you will aggressively guard leadership's time, coordinate high-stakes travel and speaking engagements, and keep a fast-moving business running smoothly. This is a high-octane, 55-hour-a-week role for a bold, thick-skinned operator who thinks five steps ahead, speaks up, and loves working in a high-speed environment.

Core Responsibilities:

• Calendar management and travel coordination
• Managing calendar agendas and scheduling internal meetings
• Coordinating availability and optimal times for external meetings
• Maintaining the call scheduling tracker
• Scheduling appointments and managing related invoices
• Speaking engagement logistics (slides, decks, materials)
• Additional tasks as delegated

Structure & Working Hours:

• Works directly with the Chief of Staff and our in-person EA; reports directly to the CEO and Chris
• 55 hours/week is a firm requirement. This is a high-paced, high-volume role, more intense than a traditional EA.
  • Working hours are 9 am to 6 pm Monday - Friday, with occasional weekend hours. The main thing is to be responsive and try to be on call on weekends

Working Style (Must-Haves):

• Clear, direct communicator, no fear of over-communication, asks for clarity upfront, thick skin
• Highly proactive, thinks 5 steps ahead and anticipates needs; this is not basic conflict-free calendaring
• Fast responsiveness with strong triage judgment (what's urgent now vs. what can wait)
• Assertive, comfortable advocating on the CEO's behalf even when uncomfortable, and defending their own work when needed
• Has to be comfortable with Notion, Slack, AI, and any other common tools and tech stack.
