Job Description

A large, private equity-backed organization is seeking a highly polished and strategic Executive Assistant to support the Chief Financial Officer. This is not a traditional administrative support role — we are looking for a proactive business partner who can operate with a high level of discretion, anticipate needs before they arise, and serve as an extension of the CFO in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. The ideal candidate is exceptionally organized and detail-oriented, while also possessing strong business acumen, executive presence, and the ability to manage competing priorities with sound judgment and professionalism. This individual will play a critical role in helping drive efficiency, communication, and operational effectiveness across the executive office.

Job Responsibility

  • Manage complex executive calendars, prioritizing meetings and ensuring alignment with shifting business priorities
  • Coordinate domestic and international travel arrangements, detailed itineraries, and expense reporting
  • Act as a strategic gatekeeper and liaison between the CFO and internal/external stakeholders, including senior leadership, investors, board members, and business partners
  • Prepare presentations, reports, meeting materials, and executive communications with a high degree of accuracy and professionalism
  • Track key initiatives, follow-ups, and deliverables to ensure deadlines and priorities are met
  • Assist in coordinating board meetings, leadership offsites, investor meetings, and other high-level events
  • Anticipate the needs of the CFO and proactively identify opportunities to improve processes, communication flow, and operational efficiency
  • Handle highly confidential information with discretion and professionalism
  • Support special projects and strategic initiatives as needed in a dynamic, fast-paced environment

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience supporting C-level executives, preferably within private equity, finance, professional services, or other fast-paced corporate environments
  • Strong business acumen with the ability to think strategically and operate beyond traditional administrative functions
  • Exceptional organizational, project management, and multitasking skills
  • Proven ability to manage competing priorities with urgency and professionalism
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with strong executive presence
  • High level of discretion, judgment, and emotional intelligence
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, including Outlook, PowerPoint, and Excel
  • Experience coordinating across executive leadership teams and managing high-touch stakeholder relationships

What we offer

  • medical, vision, dental, and life and disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan
