Executive Assistant to a Series Founder | Austin | $150-$180,000

One of Austin's most connected founders is building something serious. He operates across multiple ventures. All of them are insane. His network is extraordinary. His pace is relentless. And he needs an EA who can keep up. This role has Chief of Staff written all over it. The longer version Let's be honest about what this job actually is. You are not joining a corporate machine. There is no committee to escalate decisions to. There is no nine-to-five rhythm. You are the operational nerve centre for a founder who moves fast, thinks big, and has a calendar full of people who matter. Think venture partners, policy leaders, authors, media executives, and the kind of entrepreneurs who are shaping what comes next. The access you will have through this role is the kind that most EAs spend a career trying to earn. But access comes with expectation. He needs someone who can orchestrate complex schedules across multiple organisations without dropping the ball. Someone who prepares briefings that actually change how a meeting goes. Someone who writes on his behalf and sounds like him, not like a robot. Someone who manages relationships with the discretion and warmth of a trusted gatekeeper, not a bouncer. This is not a role for someone who waits to be told what to do. It's a role for someone who figures it out. The world you're walking into Your principal is building at the centre of one of the most fascinating Cities in America, creating opportunities, building very real things with very real people. The people in his orbit would make you sit up. And you'll be the one managing the access. What you'll actually be doing Complex diary and travel management across multiple ventures and time zones. Drafting correspondence, briefing documents, and communications on behalf of your principal. Managing relationships with investors, partners, and senior stakeholders. Owning the logistics of events, from intimate dinners to large-scale gatherings. Filtering, prioritising, and ensuring nothing important slips. Being the eyes and ears when your principal cannot be in the room. And yes, the other stuff. Because great EAs don't think anything is beneath them. Who you are You've supported a founder, CEO, or senior executive before, and you're not precious about it. You understand that serving someone at this level is a craft, not a compromise. You're calm under pressure. Fast without being sloppy. You write well. You read the room. You protect your principal's time like it's your own. You're probably the smartest person in most rooms but would never say so. You understand that elite EA work is fundamentally about judgment. When to ask. When to act. When to push back. Why this role is different The EA who thrives here won't just manage a calendar. They'll become indispensable to how this founder operates. They'll see how deals get done, how communities get built, how influence actually works. This is a launchpad. Chief of Staff potential for the right person. Location Austin, Texas. On-site, five days a week. This is a physical operation, and being present is the point. #J-18808-Ljbffr
