  • Be the go-to person for meetings and events, ensuring every gathering, internal or client-facing, runs smoothly and leaves a great impression.
  • Provide drop-of-the-hat assistance to operational needs across the team, seeing no task as too big or too small.
  • Own onboarding and office workflows, streamlining processes so the team can focus on mission-critical work.
  • Elevate the workplace experience for colleagues and clients through thoughtful planning, organization, and attention to detail for events and meetings.
  • Confident interacting with external vendor contacts regarding various property needs.
  • Deliver white-glove service to colleagues and guests alike, making everyone feel welcomed, supported, and valued.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • Work closely with a driven CEO in a mission driven financial firm.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Experienced and dependable. You bring at least four years of experience in office management, executive support, operations, or a similar role within a nonprofit, professional services, financial services, or comparable environment.
  • Professional and discreet. You exercise strong judgment, maintain confidentiality, and handle sensitive information with care.
  • Highly organized. You can successfully manage multiple competing priorities while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
  • Service-minded. You anticipate needs, take initiative, and approach both large projects and day-to-day tasks with enthusiasm and follow-through.
  • Composed. You remain calm under pressure and adjust easily as priorities shift in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

 

The salary listed reflects the anticipated compensation range for this position. Actual compensation will be determined based on relevant experience, qualifications, location, business considerations, and internal equity. Final offer amounts are determined at the employer’s discretion.
