Executive Assistant

SanAir
Richmond, VA Full Time
POSTED ON 7/6/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/3/2026
Job Description

The Executive Assistant position is a key member of the operations team whose primary role is to free up the President and the VP to function in their highest and most productive capacities. This includes functioning as a buffer for internal, lower-level demands, as well as external vendors and salespeople. SanAir has grown rapidly over the last five years. The organization now needs to emphasize process, documentation and order as we continue to pursue a lean staffing model. The Executive Assistant position will be key in that effort, and will be exposed to a range of administrative areas including human resources and accounting. Balancing and maintaining office relationships while resisting scope creep will be the greatest challenge. As a result, a friendly and helpful but firm demeanor will be paramount in this position.
