Be responsible for managing information flow, priorities, and execution.

Full-time (based in Europe) with a monthly salary of $2,500–$3,000
I started weThink as an analytics startup focused on helping high-stakes teams perform better under pressure. We work closely with U.S. Department of Defense partners and other complex organizations where clarity, precision, and sound decision-making are crucial. What we build sits at the intersection of data, human behavior, and real-world execution.

We’re a small, global team working across the US, Asia, and Europe. We value trust, calm execution, and high standards without chaos. Things move fast here, but we care deeply about doing work properly, building systems that last, and supporting each other as humans—not just roles.

We’re looking for an Executive Assistant to the Founder & CEO who acts as a true extension of me. This role exists to reduce my cognitive load, surface priorities, and ensure nothing critical is lost in complexity.

This is someone who takes full ownership of information flow, communication, and follow-through, and who enjoys creating clarity so I can stay focused on strategy, partnerships, and growth.

🧠 Own inbox and calendar management across business and some personal matters
📅 Coordinate scheduling, meetings, and travel across multiple time zones
📝 Draft emails, messages, and documents independently in my voice
🔁 Track follow-ups and ensure commitments don’t slip through the cracks
🗂️ Create and maintain systems in Notion for projects, decisions, and documentation
🤝 Coordinate with a global team and delegate tasks when needed
📊 Support operational execution across multiple parallel initiatives

💡 Be comfortable making real-time prioritisation decisions when context is incomplete, and escalate only when necessary

This is a full-time role with flexible hours, requiring at least 4-6 hours of overlap with the US Mountain Time (MT) zone.

Requirements

Must-have requirements

✅ 5+ years experience as an EA, Chief of Staff or Ops Coordinator, supporting a founder or senior executive in a fast-moving environment

✅ Proven ownership of inbox and calendar management

✅ Strong written English and ability to represent an executive’s voice accurately

✅ Demonstrated Problem-Solving ability - must be a "thinking human being," capable of troubleshooting complex, novel issues without step-by-step guidance.

✅ High Perspective-Taking ability - the capacity to quickly internalize the CEO's context (e.g., travel, social events) and design solutions that align with a high-stakes, multicultural environment.

✅ Enterprising Mindset - ability to think like an owner, take full accountability, and proactively determine the best path to a desired outcome.

✅ Systems-oriented mindset with strong follow-through

✅ Experience improving workflows or documenting repeatable processes

✅ High discretion and reliability, especially handling sensitive personal and professional data

✅ Fluency with Google Suite, Notion, Slack, and modern productivity tools

Location Requirement: Must be legally based in Europe (EU, EEA, or UK) to facilitate necessary travel.

Brownie points
⭐ Comfort using AI-enabled productivity tools
⭐ Long-term interest in executive support as a craft, not a stepping stone

The ideal candidate is calm, proactive, and quietly confident. They think a few steps ahead, communicate clearly, and take pride in protecting another person’s focus. They’re steady under pressure, highly organized, and emotionally intelligent. Critically, they possess the social understanding and sophistication required to manage both the CEO's personal and professional life, including high-stakes travel and exclusive events. They are comfortable working with a decisive founder who has high expectations and views this role as a long-term, full-time commitment, not a short-term contract or side-gig

JobRack's story began in 2015, born from a vision to connect businesses with the exceptional remote talent nestled in Eastern Europe. Initially founded by two enthusiasts of Eastern European developers, the platform aimed to bridge the gap between business owners seeking skilled professionals and the rich talent pool in the region. The early years focused on establishing JobRack as a go-to resource for companies looking to hire great people from this specific geographical area, emphasizing the strong educational background and technical skills prevalent there.

A significant turning point arrived in 2018 when Noel Andrews acquired JobRack. With a background in leading large teams in the corporate world and a burgeoning entrepreneurial spirit, Noel saw the immense potential to expand JobRack's mission. He refocused the company on bringing the power of Eastern European team members to an even broader range of businesses. This new chapter was marked by a commitment to a 'helpful and friendly hiring' philosophy, aiming to build lasting relationships and provide robust support throughout the often-complex remote hiring process. Recognizing the evolving landscape of remote work, JobRack further expanded its talent sourcing to include South Africa in 2023, identifying the incredible talent and similar value propositions this region offered. Today, JobRack prides itself on being more than just a job board; it offers 'Done With You' hiring services, actively sourcing, screening, and shortlisting candidates to ensure businesses find not just employees, but dedicated team members committed to their long-term growth. This hands-on approach, coupled with a deep understanding of the remote work ecosystem, has enabled JobRack to facilitate thousands of successful hires, helping businesses worldwide build high-performing remote teams.
