@ianmunene
Executive Assistant and operations coordinator who streamlines remote workflows, calendars, and projects across time zones.
What I'm looking for
I’m a proactive Executive Assistant and Operations Coordinator with 3+ years of experience supporting remote teams, business operations, and fast-paced digital workflows. I’m known for executive support, calendar management, inbox organization, and project coordination—while maintaining confidentiality, accuracy, and consistent follow-through. I thrive in startup-style environments where priorities shift quickly and follow-through matters.
In my roles, I manage calendars, meeting scheduling, appointment coordination across different time zones, and I keep stakeholders aligned through clear communication and meeting summaries. I coordinate project timelines, monitor deliverables, and follow up with team members to ensure deadlines are met. I also organize operational workflows, maintain internal documentation and SOPs, and support onboarding for remote team members by preparing documentation and communication schedules.
I improve efficiency with modern productivity and project management tools, using systems like ClickUp, Trello, Asana, Notion, Google Workspace, and Slack/Zoom/Teams. I also leverage AI productivity tools like ChatGPT to streamline communication, draft documentation, summarize meetings, and reduce repetitive manual tasks through structured digital processes. My goal is always smoother operations, better visibility, and reliable execution for distributed teams.
