Never send money to companies. Jobs on Himalayas will never require payment from applicants.

We’re looking for a high-level Executive Assistant who can provide end-to-end support across operations, communication, scheduling, and day-to-day execution for leadership. This role goes beyond basic admin. You’ll serve as a strategic partner who brings order, clarity, and momentum to a fast-moving environment.

You’ll handle a mix of calendar management, email triage, project coordination, research, and communication support—ensuring priorities are managed, decisions are well-informed, and workflows stay aligned.

If you excel at anticipating needs, organizing chaos, and making executive operations run smoothly, this role will be a strong fit.

Why You’ll Want to Join

  • You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
  • Up to 14 days of Paid Time Off annually (starting Day 1)
  • Observance of Holidays based on your location
  • 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you’re most productive
  • Direct partnership with founders and leadership
  • High visibility across operations, strategic initiatives, and internal projects
  • Clear growth paths into operations, project management, or Chief of Staff

What You’ll Work On

Executive and Operational Support

  • Manage complex calendars, calls, meetings, and daily scheduling
  • Organize email inboxes, prioritize messages, and draft replies when needed
  • Prepare meeting agendas, take detailed notes, and track follow-ups
  • Serve as a communication buffer and ensure the right information reaches leadership

Project Coordination and Workflow Management

  • Support ongoing projects by organizing tasks, deadlines, and documentation
  • Help leadership maintain clarity across priorities and moving parts
  • Build and maintain internal trackers, dashboards, and systems
  • Coordinate with internal teams or external partners to ensure progress

Research and Preparation

  • Conduct research for business, operations, or strategic needs
  • Summarize findings into clear briefs and recommendations
  • Gather background materials in advance of meetings or decisions

General Administrative and Personal Support

  • Assist with occasional personal tasks or logistics
  • Coordinate travel, bookings, reservations, and planning
  • Maintain confidentiality and judgment in all personal and professional matters

What You Bring

  • 3+ years as an Executive Assistant, Operations Coordinator, or similar role
  • Excellent English communication skills, written and verbal
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment
  • Proficient with Google Workspace, Notion, Slack, and project tools
  • Strong judgment, discretion, and ability to operate with limited direction
  • Resourceful and proactive — you figure things out before being asked

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting founders or senior executives
  • Background in startups, consulting, tech, or service-based businesses
  • Ability to prepare simple reports, summaries, or presentations
  • Interest in growing into operations or Chief of Staff work
