CubX Inc. is a fast-growing managed service provider delivering modern, secure IT solutions and technology services to business clients nationwide. As Executive Assistant to the CEO, you will serve as a strategic partner, ensuring priorities are aligned and execution stays on track in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment. This role is pivotal in supporting the CEO across business and personal matters, acting as a bridge between leadership, staff, clients, and partners.

The ideal candidate is highly proactive, emotionally intelligent, exceptionally organized, and thrives in high-pressure environments where priorities shift quickly. This role requires someone who can anticipate needs before they are communicated, create order in fast-moving situations, and operate with a high level of discretion, professionalism, and ownership.

You will become an extension of the CEO — protecting time, driving follow-through, helping maintain organizational alignment, and ensuring execution stays on track across the company. The right person for this role is resourceful, calm under pressure, and naturally takes initiative without waiting to be directed.
Key responsibilities include:

  • Act as the CEO’s right hand to align priorities and drive execution across all business and personal matters
  • Proactively anticipate needs, solve problems, and manage day-to-day workflow
  • Protect and manage the CEO’s calendar, triage issues, and filter distractions

  • Coordinate complex domestic and international travel, itineraries, and logistics for meetings, events, and VIP client experiences
  • Prepare briefing packets, agendas, talking points, and background research for executive meetings
  • Attend meetings, take notes, capture action items, produce summaries, and ensure follow-through and accountability across teams
  • Drive accountability by following up with leadership and department heads to ensure commitments and action items are completed
  • Manage inbound communications and draft responses, presentations, and internal communications on behalf of the CEO
  • Serve as liaison between the CEO, staff, clients, vendors, and partners
  • Handle sensitive and confidential conversations, situations, and information with maturity and sound judgment
  • Support office coordination, including supplies, deliveries, vendors/maintenance, conference rooms, team lunches, and internal events
  • Assist with onboarding logistics in collaboration with HR and IT
  • Help maintain a polished, professional, and high-performing office environment that reflects company culture and leadership standards
  • Maintain confidentiality, manage expense reports and vendor relationships, and support special projects
  • Create systems and processes to improve executive efficiency and track priorities and deadlines across departments
  • Assist with executive recruiting, interview coordination, and leadership reporting
  • Step into ambiguous situations, identify what needs to be done, and take ownership without requiring detailed instruction

RequirementsRequired Qualifications:
  • 4+ years of Executive Assistant experience supporting senior leadership, including 2+ years directly supporting a CEO, founder, or C-suite executive
  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 (Outlook/Calendar, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams) and experience using AI tools to enhance administrative productivity
  • Experience managing complex executive calendars across multiple priorities
  • Experience working in fast-paced, high-growth, or entrepreneurial environments
  • Ability to anticipate needs and proactively solve problems with minimal direction
  • Experience acting as a liaison between an executive and internal teams as well as external parties (clients, vendors, partners)
  • Experience preparing executive-facing materials such as briefing packets, agendas, talking points, and background research
  • Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple competing priorities without dropping details
  • Proven ability to maintain composure, professionalism, and sound judgment under pressure
  • Strong sense of ownership, accountability, and follow-through
  • High level of discretion and ability to handle confidential information with integrity
  • Ability to read situations and people well, exercise strong professional judgment, and communicate effectively across all levels of an organization
  • Naturally proactive with a “figure it out” mentality and minimal need for oversight
  • Comfortable operating in environments where priorities shift rapidly throughout the day
  • Strong emotional intelligence, professional judgment, and outstanding written and verbal communication skills
  • The ideal candidate can confidently interact with executives, clients, vendors, and staff while maintaining professionalism, warmth, and authority
  • Fluent English
  • Authorized to work in the United States
  • Available for after-hours work as needed
  • Able to reliably commute to Lakewood, NJ for this on-site role

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience coordinating complex domestic and international travel itineraries for a senior executive or CEO
  • Experience supporting executive recruiting, interview coordination, and leadership reporting
  • Background in office coordination, including supplies, vendors, conference rooms, and team events
  • Experience with onboarding logistics in collaboration with HR and IT
  • Experience supporting special projects and creating systems/processes to improve executive efficiency
  • Ability to manage expense reports, vendor relationships, and operational follow-through with strong attention to detail
