Family-owned and committed to personal service, the company offers a range of unique designs across styles and price points through its four brands, making it a preferred supplier for department stores, furniture retailers, interior designers, and boutique hotels nationwide.

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

Drive critical initiatives from planning to launch, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

  • Lead coordination of new system rollouts, process enhancements, and special projects from kickoff through delivery
  • Develop and maintain high-level project plans (phases, milestones, owners) in Asana, Notion, or equivalent
  • Proactively identify risks or delays, escalate when necessary, and propose actionable solutions
  • Document workflows and update SOPs to ensure repeatable, scalable processes
  • 3. Research & Problem Solving

    Deliver the insights leadership needs to make informed decisions quickly.

  • Conduct deep-dive research on business tools, vendors, and market trends; distill findings into clear recommendations
  • Source and evaluate potential suppliers or service providers, summarizing pros, cons, and next steps
  • Gather competitive and customer insights to support new initiatives or product launches
  • Present key findings in one-page briefs or slide decks for leadership review
  • 4. Task & Team Tracking

    Hold cross-functional teams accountable and keep timelines on track.

  • Monitor task completion across teams in Notion (or similar), sending reminders and tracking dependencies
  • Maintain an action-item dashboard for the President’s weekly review, highlighting at-risk deliverables
  • Follow up with assignees to confirm deadlines, clarify priorities, and escalate overdue items
  • Coordinate handoffs between teams to ensure smooth transitions and clear ownership
  • 5. People Operations & Recruiting Support

    Enable seamless hiring and performance management as our headcount grows.

  • Post job ads, screen incoming resumes, and reject unqualified candidates during initial reviews
  • Schedule interviews, coordinate candidate assessments, and manage interview logistics
  • Prepare welcome materials, arrange equipment, and process background checks for new hires
  • Coordinate performance-review timelines, collect feedback, and send reminders to managers and employees
  • Track recruiting metrics, maintain organized candidate pipelines, and update hiring progress reports
  • 6. Office Systems & Communication

    Keep our tools and communications organized, professional, and secure.

  • Order office supplies, manage subscriptions, and coordinate vendor services for daily operations
  • Organize and maintain shared drives, file systems, and databases with consistent naming conventions
  • Draft, proofread, and send emails and correspondence on behalf of leadership
  • Prepare meeting briefs, slide decks, and concise summaries for key discussions
  • Handle high-trust, confidential assignments or special projects as needed
  • Although the responsibilities outlined above will form the core focus of your role, your hiring manager may assign additional relevant tasks as needed to align with evolving business objectives.

In addition, we will ask you to complete a short psychometric evaluation and a short English proficiency assessment. The idea is to explore if this is a good fit before moving forward.
  • Skills Assessment : You will be asked to complete a few exercises and / or projects designed to recreate the work tasks that you will be responsible for if you are given the role. This helps us gauge your skill level as well as give you a better idea of the required work.

  • 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.
