Job Overview

Our client is seeking a highly organized, proactive, and strategic Executive Operations Assistant (Notion & QuickBooks) to serve as a trusted thought partner to a dynamic executive leading multiple consulting engagements and strategic initiatives. This is not a traditional Executive Assistant role; our client is looking for someone who can think like a management consultant—someone who enjoys creating structure from ambiguity, building project plans, driving execution, and keeping multiple high-impact initiatives moving forward. The ideal candidate is analytical, highly organized, and capable of partnering with executives and clients to translate complex ideas into actionable project plans.

• Workflow Automation: Facilitate project coordination using Basecamp, Notion, or similar project management platforms; track risks, dependencies, action items, and decision logs while building repeatable workflows and templates.
• Client & Stakeholder Communication: Serve as a professional point of contact for clients and internal stakeholders; draft and manage executive correspondence, reports, and client communications.
• Meeting Governance: Attend high-level meetings, capture key decisions, summarize discussions, and meticulously monitor follow-up actions while protecting executive priorities.
• Administrative & Financial Support: Process corporate invoices and assist with basic bookkeeping using QuickBooks; track expenses and support budgeting workflows using YNAB or similar software.

• Linguistic Standard: Excellent written and verbal English communication, documentation, note-taking, and meeting facilitation skills.
• Operational Autonomy: Strong organizational and time management abilities with a proven track record of driving execution with minimal supervision.

• Experience supporting corporate consulting engagements or strategic enterprise transformation projects.
