💡 Role Description

We're hiring an Executive Assistant and Office Manager to support our CTO and keep our New York office running smoothly. You’ll be the front-of-house heartbeat of the NYC office: shaping a welcoming, organised workspace, coordinating culture-building initiatives, and ensuring day-to-day operations run seamlessly. At the same time, you’ll be a trusted partner to the CTO - managing calendars and travel, supporting communication and workflow, and anticipating needs to keep priorities moving.

This role is ideal for someone with 3+ years of experience in workplace experience, office coordination, EA support, or operations - ideally in consulting, private equity, or high-growth tech - who wants variety, ownership, and impact in a growing start-up.

This is an in person role Monday–Friday.

  • Tracking action items, deadlines, and workflows across ongoing projects

  • Acting as a reliable point of contact between the CTO and internal/external partners

  • Anticipating needs, solving problems proactively, and escalating when appropriate

  • Handling confidential information with professionalism and discretion

Office Operations & Workplace Management:
  • Overseeing day-to-day office operations to ensure the space is tidy, functional, and fully stocked

  • Managing relationships with building management, vendors, and service providers

  • Coordinating onboarding and offboarding: desk setup, equipment, office access, and welcome materials

  • Managing inventory and ordering of supplies, snacks, equipment, and general office essentials

  • Coordinating with building management, maintenance, security, and external vendors

  • Managing mail, deliveries, and general office correspondence

🔥 About You

We are looking for someone who:

  • Has 3+ years of experience in EA, office management, workplace experience, or operations

  • Is ultra-organised, with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage shifting priorities

  • Is highly responsive, with strong judgement around scheduling, prioritisation, and time management

  • Operates with discretion, maturity, and high emotional intelligence, especially when handling sensitive information

  • Is naturally proactive, anticipating needs and solving problems before they arise

  • Has excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to communicate confidently with executives, teammates, and external partners

  • Is tech-savvy and comfortable adopting new tools to streamline systems and boost efficiency

  • Cares deeply about team culture and creating a warm, enjoyable, and productive workplace

  • Is based in New York, fluent in English, and has the right to work in the US
