ROLE
REPORTS TO: CEO
Location: In-Person At Office in Westfield, NJ
Are you highly organized, resourceful, and thrive in a dynamic environment where no two days are alike?
We are seeking a Personal Assistant to support the CEO in their daily activities, both professionally and personally.
You serve as the liaison between the CEO of Client Accelerators, and the rest of his personal life.
This means you are responsible for executing processes and making decisions on behalf of the CEO. You will work on a one-to-one basis on a variety of tasks related to the CEO’s working and personal life.
You'll work directly with our accomplished CEO who usually has his head in the clouds thinking abstractly about visionary projects and client strategies.
Additionally, you will play a key role in supporting the CEO’s personal brand by assisting with filming and organizing YouTube content.
Your sole job is to make sure that many of his day-to-day necessities are taken care of so his time is freed up for thinking, business development and executing.
Given his time constraints and personality, some of his requests to you will be abstract and ambiguous.
But you're an independent and critical thinker who isn't intimidated by that. You never fear asking a "stupid" clarifying question.
But you also don't need step-by-step instructions and you frequently do quick research to generally educate yourself on the topic, so you can ask smarter, clarifying questions to zero in on the right approach and solution for the task at hand.
To be the best personal assistant for him, you will need to be flexible, calm under pressure, a strategic thinker, and also able to work quickly when needed.
The CEO's requests won't always be easy. He's always stretching and growing himself and that will mean the same for you.
Some examples are..
- CEO needs your help to layout a project brief for his office design/build-out & make sure there’s full congruency on budget, timeline, and process with the General Contractor.
- His dog needs to get dropped off to get groomed & picked up in the middle of the work day.
- The laundry machine in his house needs to be fixed & you need to coordinate with the appliance center & be there when they show up.
- We need to organize pre-production
- The CEO needs your help getting 27 tax forms printed out, organized, signed, and mailed before the tax deadline.
If you get stumped easily, this is definitely not the right job for you.
He's ONLY interested in someone who thrives on being stretched, challenged, intellectually stimulated... and never broken.
