Executive Assistant to Founder/CEO

Role Overview:

• This is not a traditional EA role; you will operate as a strategic operator, Chief of Staff, and top-tier consultant.
• You will work directly with the Founder/CEO in a fast-scaling, high-growth environment where speed, discretion, and precision matter.
• You will sit in high-level meetings, interact with investors and C-level executives, and serve as an extension of the CEO.

Location & Work Structure:

• Must be based in Metro Manila and willing to work remotely during the initial phase.
• Fully committed to transitioning to hybrid or on-site work once Philippine operations are formally established.
• Flexible with time zones, including overlap with U.S. business hours.

What You'll Actually Do:

• Manage and ruthlessly prioritize an ever-changing calendar.
• Draft high-stakes emails, investor updates, board communications, and executive briefs.
• Push back respectfully when something doesn't make business sense and navigate difficult conversations with executive presence.

Intangibles (Non-Negotiable):

• Executive presence, emotional intelligence, assertiveness with tact, and calm under pressure.
• Obsessive attention to detail, high standards for yourself and others, and an ownership mentality.
• You become indispensable by making bottlenecks disappear before they become visible.
