The EA supports the CEO and CFO directly and is really meant to be a right-hand person. It’s a mix of traditional executive support and personal assistance, so they need someone who genuinely enjoys being the person who just figures things out and gets things done.
Key responsibilities:
- Managing complex calendars, meetings, appointments and scheduling
- Coordinating travel, reservations and logistics
- Handling correspondence, documents, expenses and records
- Researching information and putting together basic spreadsheets
- Ordering supplies/products and keeping the office running smoothly
- Coordinating with vendors, IT, maintenance and other service providers
- Handling personal errands and household/family-related tasks when needed
- Planning or assisting with events and reservations
- Managing confidential information with discretion
- Following up on loose ends without needing to be reminded
- Taking vaguely defined requests and independently figuring out how to execute them
The personality fit is a HUGE part of this one. They want someone polished, extremely proactive, organized, trustworthy, resourceful and detail-oriented. Someone who stays a few steps ahead of Jordan and Kim rather than waiting to be told what to do.
Technology-wise, they don't need some crazy technical background, but they want someone who is comfortable with AI/tools, good at internet research, can handle basic spreadsheets, and learns new systems quickly.
And the fun selling point: it’s a fast-growing nostalgic candy company, so this isn't a buttoned-up corporate EA job. They’d be right alongside senior leadership at a company bringing recognizable nostalgic candy brands back to life.
Salary : $75,000 - $85,000
