Job Summary
This experienced coordinator brings strong judgment, discretion, and hands-on execution. This role will support the Chief Digital, Enterprise Performance and Improvement Officer day to day by helping ensure leadership time, attention, and follow-through stay focused on the most important enterprise priorities.

This role serves as a central coordination point across executive prioritization, calendar tradeoffs, leadership operating rhythm, communications quality, cross-functional follow-through, special projects, and executive events-combining direct operational execution with sound judgment, strong coordination, and leadership of a small team of Executive Assistants. The role is designed to help coordinate the leader's meetings, priorities, and key events in a way that improves responsiveness, keeps the team focused on the highest-value work, and builds a more efficient, digitally enabled operating model for the office.

The coordinator in this role is expected to operate with strong digital fluency and an AI-first mindset, using modern tools to improve speed, quality, consistency, and overall team effectiveness across the office.

Job Responsibilities
• Support day-to-day office operations by triaging incoming requests, vendor and business partner emails, and leadership follow-ups-using judgment to determine what requires immediate executive attention versus what can be delegated, redirected, or deferred.
• Partner with Executive Assistants to review calendar conflicts, manage tradeoffs, and protect leadership focus-deciding what to move, shorten, delegate, or decline when competing priorities arise.
• Quality-check, rewrite, and tighten leadership materials, communications, and meeting content to ensure they are clear, polished, and aligned before reaching senior leaders.
• Identify risks, gaps, and misalignment through meetings and day-to-day interactions; surface issues early, forward key invites, and help connect dots across stakeholders before problems escalate.
• Help coordinate follow-through on cross-functional actions by nudging stakeholders, escalating when needed, and stitching together updates to maintain momentum.
• Work through follow-ups and late-breaking requests that require decision support, context gathering, or rapid coordination to keep priorities moving.
• Orchestrate the monthly staff meeting rhythm by prioritizing agenda topics, confirming readiness, organizing materials, capturing meeting notes, and tracking follow-up actions to closure.
• Curate all-hands topics with key partners, ensuring the right content is elevated and materials are high quality, cohesive, and ready for executive review.
• Lead and develop a small team of Executive Assistants, including work assignment, coverage decisions, coaching, and standards for high-quality executive support, while improving team efficiency, encouraging smart ways of working, and ensuring capacity is directed toward the highest-value work across the organization.
• Manage the day-to-day operating rhythm for the SVP leader and broader organization by directing the EA team, organizing meetings, work, and key events, and improving how the office plans, prioritizes, and executes through efficient processes and strong use of digital tools.
• Lead or coordinate special projects, priority initiatives, and key events as needed, helping scope work, align stakeholders, organize execution, and maintain momentum.
• Coordinate across senior leaders, business partners, and support teams with professionalism and discretion to keep meetings, priorities, and office operations moving effectively.
