What are the responsibilities and job description for the Executive Assistant to the Co-Founders position at Hitz Cannabis?
Location: Yelm, WA (within 1 hour)
Full-time | High-impact | Growth-focused
Hitz Products is entering a rapid growth phase and is looking for an Executive Assistant to work directly with our two co-founders. This role sits at the center of our expansion across Washington State and into additional states beginning in 2026.
This is not a traditional admin role. You’ll help drive execution on key growth initiatives, manage high-level partner interactions, and ensure leadership priorities turn into action.
Hitz Products is a Yelm, Washington–based cannabis CPG brand with multiple indoor and outdoor cultivation facilities and an uncapped production license. Built from the acquisition of Rainier Organics, Hitz is known for organic growing practices, accessible pricing, and the integration of music, culture, and cannabis.
Our model is proven. We are now in blitz-scale mode, expanding within Washington and preparing for multi-state growth through licensing partnerships and event-driven brand initiatives.
