What are the responsibilities and job description for the Executive Assistant to Chief Executive Officer position at Alison Brown Placement Specialists, LLC?
Executive Assistant to CEO & Founder | SF-Based AI Startup | $150–160K
Our client is a fast-growing, venture-backed AI company with a huge user base, a proven founder that has already had a prior exit, and an incredibly talented team. The company is still small, Series A, and building something that matters. They are looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to be a true partner to the CEO, someone who keeps pace with a founder who moves fast, travels frequently, and has a full life outside the office. Salary will be $150-160K and the position is full-time in the San Francisco office.
What you'll own:
- The CEO's calendar, managing work, travel, family time, and meetings that move the needle
- All travel logistics (weekly travel, plus investor meetings, conferences, and events nationwide)
- Communications and stakeholder management: triaging email, drafting responses, and representing the CEO's voice with investors, board members, and partners
- Office operations and culture in the SF office: onboarding, vendors, and making it a place people want to be
- Ad hoc support for the founding team when high-stakes needs arise
Who you are:
- 6–10 years’ EA or Chief of Staff experience, ideally supporting a founder or senior executive
- Someone who anticipates needs before they're expressed: you're three steps ahead, not two
- Comfortable toggling between professional and personal logistics with complete discretion
- Genuinely curious about AI tools and proactive about using them to work smarter
- Warm, high-energy, and someone people want to have in the room
- Degree preferred
Salary : $150,000 - $160,000
