Job Description

Join a purpose-driven team as the Executive Operations Assistant to support a high-performing leadership team and ensure the smooth day-to-day functions of the D.C. office. This is an opportunity for a proactive, detail-oriented professional who thrives in a dynamic environment and enjoys juggling both executive support and operational logistics. As the Executive Operations Assistant, you’ll provide hands-on support to several senior leaders, owning everything from calendar management to travel logistics, while also playing a key role in the daily operations of a collaborative office space. Your ability to anticipate needs, manage competing priorities, and communicate effectively will help drive the success of the entire team.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Coordinate demanding, multi-time zone calendars with poise and precision. Prepare executives for meetings by organizing agendas, materials, and follow-ups.
  • Draft and proofread professional correspondence and internal communications.
  • Manage complex domestic and international travel planning from start to finish.
  • Process monthly expenses and track travel-related costs with a high degree of accuracy.
  • Manage office operations, such as supply inventory and ordering, vendor management, set-up and take-down for meetings, and ad hoc office projects.
  • Organize team events, in-office meetings, and offsites. Encourage a welcoming office environment to internal contacts and external guests.
  • Assist with administrative process improvements, documentation, and cross-team collaboration.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • You’ll support a leadership team working on high-impact issues with global reach.
  • You’ll split your time between executive support and operations, keeping your workday varied and engaging.
  • Highly competitive benefit offerings.
  • Hybrid work model with flexibility for additional days in-office when needed is required.
  • A supportive, mission-aligned foundation that values efficiency, initiative, and integrity.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Reliable history. You have at least three years of experience supporting executives or senior leaders in a dynamic role balancing administrative and office support.
  • Trustworthy. You understand the importance of professionalism and privacy in all aspects of your work.
  • Mature. You bring a high level of emotional intelligence and sound judgment to your work, even in high-stakes or high-pressure moments.
  • Prioritization is your DNA. You stay on top of the details, timelines, and logistics others may miss.
  • Fluid. You can pivot quickly, problem-solve in real time, and handle the unexpected with grace.
  • Google-savvy. G-suite comes naturally to you; you are confident operating across tech-programs and coordinating between in-person and remote meetings.
