Executive Assistant

Connecticut Innovations

Nuritas’ Vision is to Improve the Lives of Billions. We are transforming the discovery of bioactive ingredients using AI, deep learning, and genomics to unlock peptides from natural plant sources. Our proprietary AI platform, Magnifier, uses advanced machine learning and our extensive dataset of molecules to identify natural peptides with specific health benefits. Peptides are small proteins that help the body communicate quickly to activate pathways, transmit signals, and regulate cellular processes. We optimize these molecules for stability and scalability, ensuring they perform in real‑world food applications. These include PeptiStrong® for protein amplification and PeptiSleep™ for improving sleep across all phases. Founded in 2014 by Dr. Nora Khaldi, the company has built the world’s largest peptide knowledge base and formed high‑profile partnerships with companies like Nestle, Mars, and Sumitomo Corporation. Its team, diverse in nationality and gender, is driven by innovation and passion to bring nature’s benefits to the world. The Position We are looking for an organized, proactive, and friendly Executive Assistant to support our CEO (Dr. Nora K. | LinkedIn) with day‑to‑day tasks and administrative duties. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys keeping things running smoothly, managing multiple priorities, and providing high‑quality support in a fast‑paced, innovative company. You will assist the CEO with calendar management, travel coordination, meeting preparation, and general administration, as well as supporting the smooth running of the office when needed. Key Duties & Responsibilities Provide administrative and personal support to the CEO. Manage the CEO’s calendar, schedule meetings, and coordinate appointments. Organize travel arrangements (business and personal, domestic and international). Act as a point of contact between the CEO and internal/external stakeholders. Prepare meeting agendas, take notes or minutes, and follow up on action items. Handle correspondence, emails, and document preparation. Maintain confidentiality and ensure information is managed appropriately. Assist with occasional office management tasks and small projects. Support the coordination of company meetings and events. Essential Qualifications Excellent organizational and communication skills. Strong knowledge of Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint). High attention to detail and accuracy. Ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks under time pressure. Professional, discreet, and reliable with a positive attitude. Able to work independently and take initiative. Previous experience (3+ years) in PA role supporting senior staff. Flexibility to occasionally work across time zones. Proactive, organised, and enjoy helping others succeed. You’re a clear communicator who can handle sensitive information with discretion. About The CEO As CEO and Founder of Nuritas, I'm pioneering the intersection of artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and nutrition to unlock nature's hidden potential. With a PhD in molecular evolution and bioinformatics, I've transformed from pure mathematician to biotech innovator, leading the charge in AI‑driven peptide discovery. What drives me: The conviction that nature holds untapped solutions to our greatest health challenges. Through our proprietary AI platform, The Nuritas Magnifier, we're the first biotech company to prove an AI model in life sciences from lab to commercialization—identifying, validating, and patenting bioactive peptides that can revolutionize health outcomes. Innovation in action: Under my leadership, Nuritas has built the world's largest library of natural peptides with known health benefits, moving from target identification to patentable discoveries in just 12 months. Our partnerships with industry giants like Nestlé demonstrate the real‑world impact of our breakthrough approach. And we've commercialized 6 plant peptide ingredients having 16 human clinical studies and over 150 million doses taken by consumers. Recognition & impact: Named Woman of the Decade in Business and Leadership, I've been featured by Forbes, Wired, and Nature Research. Our groundbreaking work has attracted investment from visionaries including U2’s Bono and Marc Benioff, validating our mission to reach and impact billions of lives. My vision: Leading international teams across different disciplines and industrial settings, I'm committed to reaching billions of people with safer, more effective health solutions derived from the natural world. We're not just discovering ingredients—we're rewriting the rules of how we approach human health and longevity.
