• Ensure that all phone calls are made/responded to in a timely manner and all projects are appropriately documented
• Providing a bridge for communication between the CEO and internal departments; demonstrating leadership and excellent service
• Must be available after hours and occasionally on weekends for unexpected schedule changes and other administrative duties affecting the CEO.
• Join conference calls, keep track of and take action on all CEO’s action item lists

Qualified Candidates Will Possess the Following:

• Strong organizational skills that reflect ability to perform and prioritize multiple tasks seamlessly with excellent attention to detail
• Proactive and “one step ahead,” able to not only complete a requested task, but also think through the context and implications to go “above and beyond”

• Ability to work on multiple projects, manage priorities, and accurately set expectations
• Excellent common sense and ability to make solid judgment calls autonomously
• Ability to be flexible in response to changing priorities and needs
• Tenacious and resourceful, with a real “can do” attitude to figure things out
• Strong competency with technical projects a plus
• Mastery with Microsoft Office (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) required, along with an ability to learn new systems quickly and confidently

This is an on-site, full-time, salaried position, with possibility for partial-remote once training is completed. Typical work schedule will be 8:00-4:30 PST, with occasional evening and weekend commitments, depending on the calendar and needs of the CEO.
