    WHAT YOU'RE SIGNING UP FOR:

    The opportunity to look inside the mind of a successful, fast paced, intense, sometimes chaotic, passionate, easygoing entrepreneur. Your primary focus will be to protect his time, financial interests, image/brand and multiply his effectiveness. Success here will not happen simply by doing what you're told. You will need to know the desired outcomes, prioritize your time and projects - and make your own decisions as to how to best accomplish our goals.

    From the inner workings of business operations and business travel -- to handling and owning the challenging moments and tasks that a successful business owner has -- you'll get to experience it all first hand. With a close relationship, you'll learn his personality and voice and ultimately manage much of his day to day activities, scheduling, correspondence, errands, project management, research - among other activities.

    Importantly -- If you want to clock in and clock out of your job - this isn't for you. Expect after hours and weekend calls from time to time – although every effort will be made to respect the boundaries of your personal life.

    If you want to understand and be involved in business at a level that most never do - you're in the right place.

    Elite organizational skills, intellect, great communication, being tech savvy are all important - but there's nothing that replaces dedication, hard work, and follow through. Great businesses and people are built with excellent teams behind them. The right person will have the opportunity to help uplift the CEO to new levels; personally and professionally - and gain an unparalleled education while doing so. A desire to lead from behind and persist until the job is complete is critical.

    • Organizing & keeping the office awesome (clean up, supplies, organization, etc)
    • Online research
    • Managing CEOs personal calendar
    • Miscellaneous tasks for CEO - personal & business

    THE IDEAL CANDIDATE HAS THESE QUALITIES:
