About the role: We’re looking for an Executive Business Partner to work alongside our CEO as a strategic partner. You’ll decide where his time goes, prepare him for every important conversation and keep the company aligned with his priorities. You’ll be a senior member of the CEO Office, with the authority to decide which meetings, events and requests make it onto his agenda.

- Triage inbound requests such as speaking invitations, events, and approaches from partners and investors, and put forward clear recommendations.
- Brief the CEO before key meetings with the context, the objectives and the points he needs to land.
- Act as the CEO’s point of contact for investors, partners and the leadership team, representing him with judgement and discretion.
- Manage the CEO’s inbox and complex international travel so he can stay focused on what matters most.
Requirements:
- 6+ years supporting C-level executives, ideally a founder or CEO in a fast-growing tech company or startup.
- A strong sense of business priorities: you can judge whether an activity matters and defend that call to senior stakeholders.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, including concise executive briefs.
- Complete discretion with confidential information, including fundraising and investor matters.
- High autonomy and ownership: you anticipate needs before they’re raised.
- Fluent in English and French (spoken & written).
- An entrepreneurial mindset and comfort with ambiguity and changing priorities.
- Available within 4 weeks.
Location:
- Paris
- This role is hybrid, and you are expected to be in the office 3 days a week on average.
