Executive Assistant

Who you are:   

The Oberon Group is an independent hospitality company. We build and run neighborhood restaurants, bars, and an events and catering business, and we do it with a small team that stays close to the work.

The Executive Assistant is the operational center of the Founder's office. You keep the calendar honest, the inbox moving, and the day from collapsing under itself — and you do it with the same instinct for hospitality that runs through the rest of the company. Partners, guests, vendors, and our own team will often reach the Founder through you first.

This is a role for someone who anticipates rather than reacts. You will learn the Founder's priorities well enough to make calls without being asked, spot the conflict three weeks out, and quietly solve the logistics problem before it becomes a conversation. It is in person, it is varied, and no two weeks look the same.

What you’ll do:  

• Provide strategic support based on an innate understanding of key priorities, objectives, and leadership style.
• Manage inbox flow and correspondence — triage, draft, follow up, and close the loop so nothing sits.
• Structure calendar cadence to support long-term business objectives while strategizing and implementing processes to maximize time.
• Prepare the Founder for what's next: briefing notes, agendas, background on who's in the room, and the materials for partner, investor, and vendor meetings.
• Update contracts on a regular basis, maintain guest lists, and send event invitations when appropriate.
• Take on special projects across the company where an extra pair of capable hands moves something forward.

What we need from you:  

• At least 2 years of experience in an Executive Assistant role or any applicable relevant experience
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite
• Keen attention to detail and the ability to prioritize
• Exceptional judgment about what to escalate, what to handle, and what to leave alone.
• Based in New York and able to work in person, with flexibility for occasional evenings and weekends around events.

What you’ll get from us:  

As an Executive Assistant, you’ll enjoy:

• Competitive pay: Annual compensation of $70,000 - $80,000 
• Health coverage: Medical, dental, and vision insurance contribution 
• Time to recharge: 14 days paid time off a
• Dining Credit: 20% off all Oberon restaurants 

*The above represents the expected salary range for this position. Ultimately, in determining your pay, we'll consider your experience and other job-related factors.

The responsibilities outlined above are not exhaustive. This role may be required to take on other duties or projects as necessary to support organizational goals, in alignment with their skills, experience, and the evolving needs of the business.
