If you are passionate about creating real solutions that help businesses with cutting-edge technology, want to be challenged to think out of the box and be in a position where you can impact change on a daily basis, then LightEdge can offer you a dynamic corporate environment built on teamwork and personal responsibility. The Executive Assistant (EA) provides high-impact administrative, operational, and communication support to LightEdge's Executive Leadership Team. This role is pivotal in enabling executives to operate at scale: orchestrating complex calendars, travel, board materials, executive meetings, and cross-functional workflows while maintaining absolute discretion and a digital-first, detail-obsessed approach. The EA partners closely with Sales, Finance, Marketing, HR/Talent, Legal, Product, and Operations to keep priorities moving and deliver executive-level artifacts on time and in brand.

Board, Investor, and Leadership Materials Prepare, proof, and coordinate executive presentations, pre-reads, and briefing documents for executive meetings using approved LightEdge templates. Consolidate inputs from cross-functional leaders; ensure version control, data accuracy, and on-time distribution of materials. Meeting Excellence Draft agendas; capture decisions, action items, and owners; circulate minutes and follow-up trackers; monitor progress and escalate risks. Coordinate executive roundtables and advisory sessions (CAB/PAB/Analyst briefings) in partnership with Marketing/Events; support SKO, Presidents Club, and executive retreats as needed. Cross-Functional Coordination Serve as the first point of contact and liaison between the executive(s) and internal/external stakeholders; triage requests and protect time. Partner with Marketing/Comms to ensure brand-compliant communications (PowerPoint, letterhead, email signature) and with HR/Talent for interview scheduling and onboarding touchpoints. Process & Tools Improve administrative processes (templates, checklists, automation) to reduce cycle time and errors; maintain executive SOPs and playbooks. Use Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint), expense/travel platforms, and collaboration systems; uphold document hygiene and secure sharing aligned to brand guidelines. Confidentiality & Compliance Handle sensitive information with absolute discretion; follow company policies and brand standards for documents and communications Qualifications 57+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant (supporting C-level or senior executives in a fast-moving, growth-oriented environment). Expert calendar, travel, and expense management; strong written communication, proofreading, and presentation support skills. Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and virtual collaboration (Teams/SharePoint/OneDrive); comfort with branded templates and executive-ready formatting. High integrity, sound judgment, and ability to manage confidential information. Experience coordinating board materials and executive offsites; familiarity with sales leadership rhythms (QBR/SKO) and partner/customer executive meetings. Setup Executive Sponsor check-ins Background supporting multiple executives simultaneously; process improvement or project coordination experience. Competencies Anticipation & Ownership: Proactive problem-solver who sees around corners and closes loops without being asked. Communication Excellence: Clear, concise, executive-level writing and interpersonal presence; adept at summarizing and escalating. Organization & Detail: Meticulous with calendars, logistics, and artifacts; strong version control and documentation discipline. Speed & Adaptability: Thrives in dynamic priorities and tight deadlines; maintains composure and quality.
