Early-stage consumer VC firm is looking for an Executive Assistant to support its Founder & Managing Partner. This is an exciting opportunity to be the right hand to a highly networked, high-energy investor at a small, close-knit firm where no two days look the same.

• Partner closely with the Chief of Staff and broader team to keep firm-wide priorities moving.

• Previous 3 years of experience supporting a founder, partner, or C-suite executive, ideally at a venture capital firm, financial services firm, or high-growth startup.
• Strong personality with the confidence to push back, manage up, and help an executive prioritize when everything feels urgent.
• Agile, flexible, and adaptable, with the ability to stay composed when plans change, get delayed, or shift at a moment’s notice.
• Thick skin and a steady, solutions-oriented mindset that doesn’t take things personally.
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, with a high bar for quality and polish.
• Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to draft emails in the executive’s voice.
• Strong strategic calendaring skills and sound judgment on what to accept, decline, or reschedule.
• High energy and a proactive, go-getter attitude suited to a fast-paced, ever-changing environment.
• Discretion and professionalism in handling confidential business and personal matters.
• Responsive and flexible outside standard office hours when needed.
