We’d love to hear from you if you...

• Have 2+ years Executive/Admin Assistant experience in a fast-paced environment; bachelor’s degree preferred
• Present relentless attention to detail and excellent time-management skills
• Demonstrate unwavering trust, constant reliability, and a strong understanding of confidentiality, on both a business and personal level

• 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 several busy calendars and knowledge of Google GSuite (i.e. Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Mail)
• Are driven to work independently with little direction, as well as collaboratively with many different colleagues
• Are passionate about Policygenius’ mission & product and excited about growing with a fintech startup company

You can expect…

• Company-paid health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance
• 401(k) plan, FSA & commuter benefits
