We pride ourselves on being ethical, authentic, and deeply knowledgeable; a team that communicates clearly, works efficiently, and supports one another. We're currently seeking a Part\-Time Executive Assistant to help our owner manage a mix of business and personal responsibilities with professionalism, discretion, and care. If you're organized, proactive, and thrive on variety, this flexible, hands\-on role is a great opportunity to support a fast\-paced, community\-oriented company while keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes. Our company operates with the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), ensuring structure, accountability, and growth opportunities at every level.

Please note: GNB's office will be expanded in 2026/2027, but right now we are a full house. So mostly, you would work from the owner's home. You need to be comfortable working alone much of the time. You can come visit us at the office if you're lonely \- we are only across the street \- but for the most part, you will be working on your own. Make sure you like this style of work. However, in a couple of years, we will have a bigger office, at which time the owner would like to have her Executive Assistant work with her at the office directly. Some flexibility is needed in this respect.
