Executive Assistant

Job Description

Who We Are

Game Changers Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm investing in sports, media, entertainment, and technology. We believe the most enduring businesses are born where culture meets innovation.

We back founders who are reimagining how people play, watch, connect, and compete — from reshaping fan experiences and building digital platforms to creating entirely new categories of sport and entertainment.

Our team combines deep operating experience across sports ownership, media, data, and technology with an operator-first approach. We invest early, support actively, and help founders scale with confidence through capital, credibility, and connections.

At our core, we invest in game changers — ambitious entrepreneurs rewriting the rules of the game and shaping the future of play, competition, and culture.

Why This Role

Game Changers Ventures is seeking an Executive Assistant who will keep the office running seamlessly, support three investment partners, and grow into broader operational work alongside the Head of Operations. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys creating order, anticipating needs, and solving problems in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment.

The role begins with ownership of the office and core executive support. As the Executive Assistant builds context and trust, the position will expand into projects across finance, accounting, portfolio management, and general firm operations. This is an operations career path, not an investment-team track.

Growing operations responsibilities

\n
• Partner directly with the Head of Operations on evolving business and administrative priorities.

\n
• Strong working knowledge of Apple products and comfort troubleshooting conference-room technology, including Zoom, Google Meet, displays, cameras, and audio.
\n
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
\n
• Meticulous attention to detail and a high standard for how spaces, meetings, and materials look and feel.
\n
• A resourceful, service-oriented approach and a track record of closing loops without repeated follow-up.
\n
• Discretion and sound judgment when handling confidential information.
\n
• The flexibility and ambition to move between hands-on office needs, executive support, and evolving operational projects.
\n
• Comfort working four days per week in the Chelsea office, one day remote, with occasional responsiveness outside standard business hours when schedules or events require it.

\n

\n
• Employees and guests consistently experience a welcoming, polished, and prepared environment.
\n
• The Executive Assistant becomes a trusted partner who can take increasingly complex operational work off the Head of Operations’ plate.
\n

\n
