Personal Assistant

Personal Assistant to the CEO | Ambitious. Resourceful. Reliable.

Location: Houston, Texas

Pay: $65,000–$80,000 per year

Job Type: Full-time

Schedule: Approximately 45–50 hours per week

Travel: Out-of-market travel for up to one week per month, sometimes arranged with limited notice

The Opportunity

My Fit Foods is looking for an ambitious, highly capable Personal Assistant to work directly alongside our Founder and CEO, Mario Mendias.

You will spend much of your working time with Mario moving with his schedule, traveling with him, and handling the personal and professional details competing for his attention. This is not a traditional office-based assistant position, and every day will not follow the same routine.

The role is primarily focused on personal assistance, with a smaller but important layer of executive support. You will manage appointments, travel, purchases, errands, household and vehicle needs, and other logistics that allow Mario to remain focused on leading and growing the company. You will also partner with his Executive Assistant, Mallory, to coordinate select business priorities, communication, and follow-up.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone building their career who is hungry for greater responsibility, exposure, and growth. You should be energetic, resourceful, highly responsive, and excited to learn while working directly beside a successful founder and CEO.

Mario moves quickly, communicates directly, and maintains high standards. You must be comfortable receiving candid feedback, adjusting quickly, and sharing an honest perspective or respectfully pushing back when necessary.

Some assignments will involve sensitive business matters. Others may include coordinating a home repair, servicing a vehicle, picking up a purchase, or changing travel plans. The right person will approach every responsibility with urgency, discretion, and professionalism.

What You Will Do

• Travel with Mario to business meetings, company locations, events, and out-of-market destinations
• Manage personal appointments, reservations, purchases, deliveries, and errands
• Coordinate household services, repairs, vendors, and ongoing home needs
• Oversee vehicle maintenance, servicing, registration, and transportation needs
• Arrange flights, accommodations, ground transportation, dining, and itineraries
• Anticipate needs and resolve issues before they require Mario’s attention

Executive Support

• Coordinate select business meetings, appointments, and follow-ups

• Assist with projects, presentations, expenses, and internal communication

Who We Are Looking For

You are ambitious, energetic, and eager to build your career by working closely with an accomplished entrepreneur. You take pride in being the person who gets things handled without waiting for repeated direction.

You are:

• Discreet and trustworthy with private information
• Able to recognize when to act independently and when to escalate
• Flexible regarding early mornings, evenings, weekends, and changing schedules

This role is not for someone looking for a predictable desk job. It is for someone who enjoys being in motion, solving problems, staying close to the action, and becoming someone a high-performing CEO can depend on.

• Strong organizational, time-management, and follow-through skills
• Professional and concise written and verbal communication

• Familiarity with travel planning, expenses, scheduling, and vendor coordination
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
• Must live in or near Houston’s Rice Military/Washington Corridor area (77007), ideally within approximately five miles, due to frequent in-person and short-notice needs
• Must be willing and able to travel with the CEO for up to one week per month
• Must be authorized to work in the United States
