Location: Hybrid | Chicago, IL.

About Executive Administration & Workplace Operations.

The Executive Operations & Workplace team at Huge is the connective tissue that enables our C-Suite and regional teams to lead with clarity, speed, and maximum impact. We build the operational runway, streamline systems, and cultivate high-energy office environments that allow our leadership and teams to focus on driving business outcomes. We act as strategic force multipliers—protecting executive capacity, orchestrating seamless cross-functional alignment, and ensuring both our digital workflows and physical spaces operate at peak velocity.

The role.

We are seeking an exceptionally sharp, proactive, and dual-minded Executive Assistant & Office Coordinator to support members of our C-Suite while overseeing day-to-day operations for our Chicago office.

As part of a human-first, AI-native environment, you treat modern tools and workflow automation as your secret weapons to optimize time, streamline logistics, and keep business operations running effortlessly. You bring impeccable judgment, poise under pressure, and the versatility to balance high-level executive logistics with local workplace experience.

Location & Presence: This role operates on a hybrid schedule, requiring approximately 2 days per week on-site in the office, with flexibility based on events, executive visits, and team attendance.

What you’ll do.

Executive Support & Strategic Operations

  • Architect and protect complex, shifting executive calendars. You will book meetings and align executive time with strategic business priorities.
  • Serve as a strategic gatekeeper, air-traffic controller, and diplomat—filtering incoming requests, prioritizing urgent matters, and ensuring leadership is fully prepared for every engagement.
  • Orchestrate complex domestic and international travel, high-profile client dinners, executive offsites, and board-level meetings down to the minute.
  • Draft executive communications, manage meeting follow-ups, and leverage modern AI/automation tools to streamline administrative workflows and data management.
    Confidentiality Stewardship: Handle sensitive organizational initiatives and executive communications with absolute discretion and composure.

Workplace & Office Management

  • Facilities & Space Management: Maintain kitchen supplies, inventory, and conference room tech while overseeing daily office tidiness, vendor services, and building operations.
  • Site Security & Access Control: Manage visitor check-ins, physical and mobile keycard issuance (BluBox), building communications, and safety compliance.
  • Culture, Events & Hospitality: Coordinate onsite guest visits, catered meetings, team events, charitable drives, and office atmosphere.
  • Administrative & Local IT Support: Handle incoming/outgoing mail and shipments, provide basic onsite IT troubleshooting, and assist teams with local administrative filings.

What we’d like to see.

  • 5+ Years of Hybrid EA / Office Management Experience: Proven track record supporting C-Level executives while simultaneously managing physical office space in a fast-paced agency, tech, or consultancy environment.
  • Exceptional anticipation skills. You don't wait for direction; you see three steps ahead, identify operational friction, and solve problems autonomously.
  • Confident utilizing modern productivity platforms, scheduling tools, and AI-powered assistants to maximize executive and workplace efficiency.
  • Comfortable shifting seamlessly between high-stakes C-Suite logistics and hands-on, local office operations.
  • Exceptional written and verbal command with an innate flair for building warm, productive relationships across all levels of the organization.
  • Calm, focused, and adaptable in high-pressure environments where executive priorities and office needs shift rapidly.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

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.
