About Acquimatch

AcquiMatch is redefining how people buy businesses.

We operate at the intersection of entrepreneurship, finance, and human decision-making, helping capable professionals step into business ownership through a smarter, more personal, and more effective acquisition process.

We are a high-performing team in a rapid growth phase. Demand for what we do continues to increase, and the decisions being made right now will shape how this company and this industry evolve.

This role exists because the founder’s world is expanding fast, more clients, more relationships, more visibility, more opportunity. To scale cleanly, we need someone exceptional who can operate at the center of that growth and help turn momentum into a repeatable, sustainable operating rhythm.

As Senior Executive Assistant, you will work directly with Athena Simpson, founder of AcquiMatch, and be deeply embedded in the engine of the business during a pivotal stage of growth.

About The Role

This is a senior Executive Assistant role designed for someone who has experience supporting executives to perform at their highest. You are someone who operates with judgment, speed, and precision.

You will work closely with Athena in a role that blends executive support, operational coordination, and personal logistics. Making sure nothing important gets missed, forgotten, delayed, or dropped so Athena can focus on driving the business forward.

This role requires someone who can hold a high volume of context, think several steps ahead, and execute quickly without creating chaos or clean-up. You must be comfortable making decisions, setting boundaries, and representing the founder with confidence.

Over time, this role is designed to grow into a Chief of Staff–style partnership for the right person.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

As AcquiMatch grows, the founder’s time, energy, and attention become increasingly valuable.

This role plays a meaningful part in how the company scales, how the team stays aligned, and how clients experience our work. You will be trusted with real responsibility and proximity to decisions that shape the future of the business and the ETA industry.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to build a long-term partnership and grow alongside a founder who values clarity, trust, and thoughtful execution.

What You’ll Be Doing

Executive Support & Prioritization

• Act as Athena’s right hand, operating with full context to keep her focused on the highest-impact work
• Own calendar and inbox management end-to-end, including prioritization, sequencing, boundary-setting, and follow-through
• Make real-time judgment calls about what requires Athena’s attention versus what can be handled, deferred, or redirected
• Prepare Athena for meetings with context, materials, objectives, and clear next steps
• Track decisions, commitments, and open loops across client, team, and external relationships
  
  

Communication & Representation

• Draft, manage, and respond to communications in Athena’s voice with professionalism, warmth, and business fluency
• Ensure consistency in tone, expectations, and follow-up across all communication
• Maintain continuity across conversations so context is never lost as priorities shift
• Represent Athena thoughtfully with clients, partners, and collaborators when appropriate
  
  

Team Support & Access

• Create and maintain healthy access between Athena and the team
• Ensure team members feel supported, informed, and unblocked without overwhelming the founder
• Act as a connector and unblocker, not a bottleneck
• Shift fluidly between finance, HR, operations, AI, client needs, and logistics
  
  

Systems, Detail & Follow-Through

• Build and maintain systems to track priorities, follow-ups, and deliverables across a high-volume environment
• Ensure nothing falls through the cracks, including small details with large downstream impact
• Reduce repetition, rework, and clean-up through structure, documentation, and anticipation
• Bring calm organization to days and weeks that change quickly
  
  

Health, Wellbeing & Sustainability

• Treat Athena’s health, energy, and well-being as core inputs to performance as much as business needs
• Protect time for gym sessions, movement, recovery, and wellness routines
• Structure days and travel to support sustained focus and long-term effectiveness
  
  

Personal & Travel Logistics

• Coordinate travel end-to-end, including flights, accommodations, itineraries, and preparation
• Manage local logistics such as appointments, deliveries, and services to eliminate distractions
• Handle personal details intentionally, always in service of momentum and focus
  
  

What We’re Looking For

• Experience supporting senior executives across multiple business functions, including finance reviews, hiring and people operations, sales, marketing, and strategic planning
• Comfort operating in high-context environments where priorities span multiple departments and change quickly
• Ability to understand what matters in each function, track decisions and follow-ups, and keep work moving without needing to be the subject-matter expert
• Proven ability to manage complexity without missing details
• Strong judgment and comfort in making decisions independently
• Clear, professional written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to shift contexts quickly while staying organized and composed
• Systems-oriented mindset, not reliant on memory or reminders
• High EQ, discretion, and strong boundary-setting skills
• Ability and willingness to commute to New Braunfels several days per week
• In-person collaboration is core to this role, including meetings, working sessions, gym sessions, and travel preparation
• Additionally, willingness to travel outside of New Braunfels up to approximately 10-20% of the time
  
  

THIS ROLE IS A GREAT FIT IF YOU…

• See your success as helping the executive perform at their highest because of your support
• Take pride in never dropping the ball
• Enjoy keeping many moving parts aligned and moving forward
• Like building systems that make work feel calmer and more intentional
• Are energized by working closely with a founder and small, high-performing team
• Want to grow into broader operational responsibility over time
  
  

THIS ROLE IS NOT A FIT IF YOU…

• Need frequent reminders or repetition to stay on top of things
• Prefer narrow, predictable scopes of work
• Struggle to set boundaries or prioritize under pressure
• Crumble under pressure, instead of thriving from the challenge
• Are looking for a fully remote role
  
  

WHERE THIS ROLE CAN GO

• This role is designed for someone who wants to grow alongside a company in a meaningful way.
• You will start by owning the founder’s day-to-day operating rhythm, priorities, and execution. As trust builds and you gain deeper context across the business, this role can expand to include broader ownership across operations, planning, and execution.
• For the right person, this can evolve into a Chief of Staff–style partnership, with increased scope, responsibility, and compensation over time.
• Growth in this role is driven by impact. As you take on more responsibility and create leverage for the founder and the business, the role grows with you.
• If you’re excited by the idea of being close to the action, developing strong business judgment, and playing a meaningful role during a major growth phase, this role offers that opportunity.
