ABOUT THE ROLE

The Executive Assistant to the President plays a pivotal role in both companies’ continued growth and operational excellence. Reporting directly to the President, you will orchestrate critical projects—like new system rollouts and process improvements—while managing the day-to-day executive and personal matters that keep leadership focused on strategy. You’ll also own research initiatives, recruit key talent, and maintain the systems that underpin our productivity.

You’ll gain broad exposure to senior leadership, shape the way two growing brands operate, and develop advanced project-coordination skills in a supportive, learning-oriented environment.

This position is perfect for someone who :

✅ Sets and consistently meets exceptionally high standards of quality

✅ Balances critical thinking with proactive, take-initiative problem solving

✅ Is reliable and flexible—willing to adjust hours occasionally to meet urgent needs

✅ Thrives on structure and organization, keeping multiple projects on track

✅ Communicates clearly, respectfully and professionally in all interactions

  • Hiring Manager Final Interview : This is a 30 min - 60 min conversation with the position’s Hiring Manager (and potentially a few company team members) to get to know you better and to set the expectations and vision for the role.
  • The entire process usually takes anywhere between 2-4 weeks to complete depending on the seniority of the position.
