Posted Mar 23, 2026

SUMMARY

The Executive Assistant to the Chairman serves as a high\-impact operator, systems builder, and trusted partner responsible for optimizing the Chairman's time, workflows, and execution capacity across a diverse portfolio of businesses, investments, and initiatives. This role goes beyond traditional administrative support, acting as both an execution engine and an architect of AI\-enabled systems that increase speed, leverage, and operational efficiency. The Executive Assistant will manage day\-to\-day priorities while designing and implementing automation, AI workflows, and process improvements that reduce manual work and streamline operations, maintaining an "automation\-first" mindset at all times.

Operating in a fully remote, fast\-paced environment, this individual will coordinate across multiple stakeholders, manage high volumes of information, and ensure seamless execution across both professional and select personal commitments. The ideal candidate is highly resourceful, technically fluent, and relentlessly proactive—capable of translating needs into systems and ensuring nothing stalls or falls through the cracks. This role is best suited for a highly intelligent, detail\-oriented operator who thrives in ambiguity, embraces emerging technologies, and brings a disciplined, solutions\-driven approach to improving how work gets done.
