Executive Administrative Assistant

 

The Executive Administrative Assistant role sits at the center of a collaborative, fast-moving land planning and engineering team. In this role, you’ll serve as the operational link between Land Acquisition, Engineering, Legal, Finance, and External Affairs — making sure information flows freely, projects stay organized, and every team member has what they need to move forward.

This is a role for someone who takes genuine pride in being the person others rely on. You’ll support the VP of Land Planning while also keeping the broader team connected through shared systems, coordinated schedules, and timely communications. When the deal pipeline is moving fast, you’re the one making sure nothing slips through the cracks — and when teams need to align, you’re already a step ahead.
