The Executive & Personal Assistant to the CEO serves as the CEO's right hand across both her professional and personal life. This role is a true 50/50 split between executive support and personal assistance, and it owns the systems that keep the CEO operating at full capacity - managing complex calendars, preparing her for every meeting, anchoring follow-through on her priorities, and absorbing the personal logistics that would otherwise pull her focus from the business.
They also serve as a trusted point of contact for internal leaders, board members, investors, and external partners on the CEO's behalf, representing her with discretion, professionalism, and sound judgment in every interaction.
This role is ideal for someone with prior experience supporting a C-suite executive in a blended EA/PA capacity who is ready for expanded ownership in a high-growth retail environment. It is particularly suited for someone who brings strong organizational instincts, an owner's mindset, and the ability to operate independently across professional and personal workstreams without dropping detail.
