About the role…

Are you a people person? Do you like being on your toes in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment? Do you care about making others’ days better? We’re looking for an outstanding Administrative Assistant to support our General Counsel and VP of People, as a member of our People Team.

Policygenius has a people-first, values-first approach to culture and our People Team is the anchor of that; the Administrative Assistant will play an integral role in maintaining that foundation! This position will keep all of the Pg trains running on time with grace and ease. We’re looking for someone who can navigate multiple competing, urgent priorities with seemingly effortless empathy and a “no job too big or small” attitude.

In this role, you will…

  • Provide administrative support to the General Counsel and VP of People by acting as a gatekeeper and first point of contact for internal & external stakeholders 
  • Own heavy calendar management, resolve any conflicts in scheduling of appointments, and orchestrate meetings with employees and external contacts
  • Assist in formatting & building legal & people team documents and presentation slides as needed
  • Become familiar with organizational policies and procedures necessary to ensure appropriate scheduling and communication protocols are followed
  • Manage and reconcile monthly expense reports on behalf of the General Counsel & VP of People
  • Arrange business travel, including air & ground transportation, lodging, dining reservations
  • Support the Legal and People teams on special projects and assist with administrative related tasks as needed
  • Collaborate with other executive assistants around management of logistics for important events as needed (e.g., board meetings, investor presentations, VIP partner visits, leadership team offsites)

We’d love to hear from you if…

  • Have 1.5+ years experience in Executive/Admin Assistant or equivalent. Experience in a fast-paced environment is a plus; bachelor’s degree preferred
  • Possess strong attention to detail and time-management skills
  • Demonstrate consistent reliability and trust on both a business and personal level
  • Have strong written and oral communication skills to clearly and efficiently communicate with internal stakeholders
  • Display an ability to adapt well to changing plans and priorities in an ever-evolving startup environment while maintaining a calm and professional demeanor
  • Have experience managing busy calendars and knowledge of Google GSuite (i.e. Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Mail) and Zoom
  • Are enthusiastic about working collaboratively with many different colleagues
  • Are looking to grow toward a career path in Executive Support, Legal Administration or Human Resources. 
  • Are passionate about Policygenius’ mission and product and excitement about growing with a fintech startup company

You can expect...

  • Company-paid health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance
  • 401(k) plan, FSA & commuter benefits
  • Generous PTO 
  • Training, mentorship and coaching from leadership
  • The opportunity to grow alongside a company shaking up a big, old-fashioned industry
  • Fun, diverse, open-minded coworkers
