Full Job Description
If you9re ready to uplift others, challenge your ego, commit to the truth, and be better than yesterday - keep reading.

Seer is a remote first agency and Certified B-Corp with team members working across the country. If an office environment is more your style, this position can also sit in our HQ office, Philadelphia. We can only consider candidates based in the US who are able to work continental US based hours.

The Role: As the Executive Business partner to the CEO, you don9t wait for a job description to tell you what9s needed next, you see it before anyone asks. This role sits closest to Seer9s Founder and CEO, and is built for someone who treats his time, his relationships, and his reach as things worth protecting and growing. Some days that means negotiating a speaker fee and locking down travel logistics. Other days it means sitting in on a sales call, catching what mattered, and turning it into a next step. You9re equally comfortable with filling out event paperwork and making a warm introduction to a CMO. This role is for someone who wants to build their own systems rather than follow someone else9s, who gets energized by ambiguity, and who is already becoming the kind of AI-native operator who doesn9t just maintain what9s been built, but builds the next thing themselves. This role will support the hours the CEO is working, which may mean support outside of typical 9-5, must be based in Philadelphia and willing to work in our Fishtown office as needed.

Role Highlights

Conference & Speaking Circuit
  • Own the full speaking pipeline for CEO, from inquiry (inbound and outbound) through logistics through post-event follow-up
  • Build and maintain relationships with conference organizers directly, with the goal of getting CEO into rooms he9s not already in
  • Own the annual re-engagement cadence with past conference contacts and organizers to help secure speaking slots year over year
  • Handle all speaker-specific logistics: fee and hotel/flight allowance negotiation, bio, headshot, W9, vendor forms, ground transport, expense and reimbursement tracking, deadline tracking with organizers (session title, description, key takeaways), day-of tech checks
  • Own a shared presentation tracker with CEO


Travel Management
  • Price, book, and monitor all travel tied to speaking engagements and business travel, including visa coordination when necessary
  • Build custom itineraries around CEO9s preferences for airport timing, routing, and hotel standards
  • When CEO travels, proactively identify clients and prospects nearby worth a visit, and help make that time count


Business Development & Client Relationships
  • Manage BD leads that come through CEO directly, from first contact through handoff, owning timing and booking with urgency
  • Sit in on sales calls when relevant, ask questions, and turn what you learn into next steps and follow-through
  • Review call transcripts and project context to synthesize what9s happening on key accounts, and flag where Founder can add value


Calendar, Scheduling & Meeting Coordination
  • Own CEO9s calendar, understanding not just what9s on it but why
  • Produce a weekly brief with an annotated itinerary: times, locations, attendees, and context for each meeting
  • Catch and resolve scheduling conflicts before they become problems
  • Brief CEO ahead of meetings with the context needed to walk in prepared


Key Relationship & Recognition Management
  • Manage VIP contacts and logistics tied to our CEO9s most important external relationships
  • Coordinate dinners, reservations, and relationship-building touchpoints
  • Own an ongoing cadence for ad hoc goodwill and team recognition moments (thank yous, gifts, milestone recognition) as they come up, and build this into an increasingly AI-supported system over time


Board & Nonprofit Support
  • Support board logistics, including meeting coordination, materials, and event support


AI Systems & Tools
  • Use and maintain existing AI-powered systems that support this role (meeting prep, calendar review, BD intake, thought leadership tracking)
  • Grow into someone who doesn9t just maintain these systems, but proposes and builds new ones as you learn what9s needed


Daily & Personal Support
  • Handle day-to-day logistics (meals, errands, home needs)
  • Maintain inbox access for utility purposes (confirmations, login lookups, logistics), with no expectation of full inbox management
  • Manage monthly credit card transaction tagging and categorization


Essential Skills

  • You have experience in the conference and speaking circuit, with real relationships with organizers, not just familiarity with how events run
  • You are able to negotiate speaker fees and logistics without hand-holding
  • You are a high-agency operator who converts a one-liner into a fully executed outcome without waiting to be told what9s needed
  • You have strong emotional intelligence and can read a room and adapt quickly
  • You have excellent written communication and can draft across audiences, from CMOs and board members to vendors, without needing heavy editing
  • You have managed sensitive personal, financial, or business matters in a prior role and understand what stays internal without being told
  • You are organized under ambiguity and can track multiple concurrent workstreams, deadlines, and relationships without a system handed to you
  • You feel energized by the idea of your role changing day to day depending on what9s most important, not just what9s on a fixed task list
  • You are comfortable using AI tools day to day, and open to growing into someone who builds your own workflows over time


Bonus
  • You have experience supporting a founder, CEO, or other high-visibility executive directly
  • You have a network in the conference or speaking circuit that you bring with you
  • You have built or maintained your own AI-supported workflows or systems in a prior role
