• Handle highly confidential business and personal matters with discretion
• Manage expense reporting, reimbursements, and financial documentation
• Assist with bill payments, wire transfers, ACH transactions, and banking coordination
• Support process improvements related to operational and expense management workflows

Requirements:

• Minimum 3+ years of recent Executive Assistant experience supporting a CEO, entrepreneur, high-net-worth individual, or senior executive REQUIRED
• Strong financial acumen and experience handling expense management, reimbursements, payments, wire transfers, ACH transactions, or banking coordination REQUIRED
• Must be highly organized, proactive, detail-oriented, and capable of managing multiple priorities independently
• Strong technology skills, including Microsoft Office Suite, AI tools, and calendar management platforms
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with changing priorities and occasional after-hours responsiveness
• Proven ability to handle confidential and sensitive information professionally
