Experience

  • Demonstrated ability to handle confidential information with discretion
  • You don't need to be an expert—we're looking for someone eager to learn and grow with strong foundational skills

Technical Skills

  • Solid proficiency in Google Workspace (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets)
  • Curious about or some exposure to AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) for process improvement and productivity
  • Willingness to learn workflow automation (Zapier or similar)
  • Comfortable with Zoom and basic video conferencing

Who You Are

  • Eager learner: You ask questions, take feedback well, and genuinely want to develop your skills

What Makes This Role Special

You'll learn from the best. Our Executive Operations team brings decades of combined experience and is genuinely invested in teaching you the craft of executive operations. You'll receive:

This is the right role if you:

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
