Step Into the Inner Circle of Leadership.
We are a high-performing, strategy-led management consulting firm at the intersection of media, entertainment, tech, and digital innovation—advising the companies that shape the culture, trends, and technology of tomorrow.
We are seeking a world-class Senior Executive Assistant to act as the right hand to our Managing Partner, a high-impact leader operating at relentless speed in a demanding and dynamic landscape.
This is not a traditional support role. It is a mission-critical position at the heart of major strategic initiatives, boardroom decisions, and confidential negotiations.
What You'll Own
This is a role for someone ready to command control rooms, not just conference rooms.
-
Own the calendar like an air traffic controller – manage a complex web of high-stakes meetings across time zones, ensuring the executive is always in the right room at the right time.
-
Run operations like a chief of staff – streamline priorities, oversee execution of top-level initiatives, and act as a proxy for the Managing Partner when necessary.
-
Travel like a Fortune 100 fixer – build seamless, bulletproof itineraries across global locations with no margin for error.
-
Protect time, energy, and focus – ruthlessly prioritize and serve as the ultimate gatekeeper.
-
Communicate like a strategist – draft correspondence, reports, decks, and executive briefings with precision and polish.
-
Support like a partner – provide real-time judgment, strategic input, and operational firepower that makes the impossible happen.
Who You Are
A true operator. A fixer. A force multiplier. Someone who brings elite-level execution, flawless discretion, and unshakable composure to everything they touch.
You’ve worked in the pressure cooker—executive suites in consulting, finance, tech, or startups—and thrived. You anticipate needs. You manage chaos. You move fast. And you never drop the ball.
Must-Haves:
-
5+ years supporting senior C-level executives, founders, or partners in fast-paced, high-output environments.
-
Proven ability to manage complex calendars, travel, and priorities across time zones with zero friction.
-
Extraordinary organizational, communication, and decision-making skills.
-
Unwavering discretion; trusted to handle sensitive, high-level information.
-
Operates with grit, stamina, and calmness under extreme pressure.
-
Technically fluent in Google Suite, Slack, Zoom, CRMs, Notion, Excel, and adaptable to new tools including AI-powered platforms.
-
Willingness to work non-standard hours when the business demands it.
-
A natural leader who commands a room, communicates with authority, and executes with precision.
Your Mindset:
-
Anticipate & Act: You're always five steps ahead and take initiative without being asked.
-
Prioritize with Precision: You know what matters most and organize around it.
-
Hold the Line: You manage the executive’s time like a national security asset.
-
Think Strategically: You’re not just supporting leadership—you’re shaping it.
Why This Role Is Different
You’ll have a front-row seat to the strategic growth of a high-profile consulting firm shaping the future of media, technology, and culture. You’ll work directly with a Managing Partner known for pace, precision, and ambition—and your impact will be felt across the company and beyond.
This is not a stepping stone. This is a career-defining role for someone ready to operate at the highest level.
