How your work moves the mission forward - Architect Executive Operations: Propose, design, and implement operational structures, meeting cadences, and decision-making frameworks that optimize the time, focus, and effectiveness of senior leadership. - Cultivate Exemplary Trust & Communication: Act as an expert, high-judgment liaison between leadership and vital internal pillars (Finance, People Team, Legal, Communications), ensuring meticulous policy compliance and frictionless information flow. - Maximize Efficiency with Modern Tools: Seamlessly manage highly complex, shifting calendars, travel logistics, and routine communications by leveraging advanced Google Workspace features and AI-assisted workflows. - Own High-Stakes Corporate Programs: Serve as the Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) for major corporate initiatives, large-scale culture projects, and global team offsites, managing full lifecycle execution, vendor relationships, and budget governance. - Anchor the Administrative Community: Elevate the capabilities of the wider partner ecosystem across Intrinsic, establishing administrative best practices and acting as a trusted operational mentor and lead. ## Skills you will need to be successful - Elite Operational Depth: Minimum of 5 years of direct executive business partnership supporting senior VP-level (or equivalent) leaders within a fast-moving, complex technology or international corporate ecosystem. - Feedback Resiliency & Style Adaptability: Proven comfort and effectiveness partnering with highly direct, fast-paced leadership styles; ability to receive and constructively integrate feedback regarding behavioral approach as well as tactical results. - High-Touch Stakeholder Diplomacy: Outstanding capability to direct large-scale, multi-departmental culture projects simultaneously with high-touch, day-to-day executive support without a reduction in quality, discretion, or precision. - Corporate Policy & Governance Fluency: An expert understanding of corporate procurement, expense management, compliance frameworks, and internal processes to safeguard team operations and minimize cross-functional friction. - Advanced Workspace Integration & AI Leverage: Deep mastery of Google Workspace combined with proven experience actively integrating generative AI tools (such as Gemini) to accelerate executive communications, synthesize complex business datasets, and aggressively streamline administrative workflows. ## Skills that will differentiate your candidacy - Strategic Advisory & Executive Advocacy: Standout candidates act as a true strategic partner, confidently representing the executive’s voice in internal meetings, protecting leadership brand, and navigating complex matrixed teams during organizational shifts. - High-Judgment Synthesis & Auditing: The ability to digest complex, technical business updates and incoming requests, accurately auditing communications and automated drafts for tone, context, nuance, and accuracy before they reach executive visibility. - Strategic System Building: A track record of turning custom, one-off executive initiatives (such as global retrospectives, leadership summits, or cultural events) into scalable, documented playbooks utilized across the entire organization. Operational Leverage: The ability to treat administrative support as a leverage game—using Google Workspace, basic scripting, or AI tools to automate repetitive tasks, freeing your time to focus on high-value business partnership and strategic problem-solving. The base salary for this full-time position is between $117,600 - $160,720 (USD) + 15% bonus + equity + benefits.
