Executive Assistant to the CEO

Your role

We’re looking for an Executive Assistant to the CEO who thrives on clarity, discretion, and getting things done. You’ll be the backbone of the CEO’s day-to-day: planning, coordination, and organization across calendar, travel, meetings, and priorities—so leadership can focus on the company’s mission.

You’ll also help run a smooth NYC office experience—supporting social and external events, liaising on office premises and vendors where needed, and making sure guests and teammates feel the Fairmint standard from the first impression.

What you’ll own

• Calendar & time — Manage, prioritize, and protect the CEO’s schedule; coordinate internal and external meetings across time zones.
• Coordination & follow-through — Track action items, prepare briefs, and chase loose ends so nothing slips.
• Travel & logistics — Book and adjust travel, itineraries, and on-site logistics with minimal friction.
• Events & hospitality — Support team and social events, small offsites, and external dinners or forums as needed.
• Office & premises — Help keep the NYC office organized and welcoming; coordinate with building or vendors on day-to-day facilities issues.
• Administration — Handle light correspondence, filing, expenses, and other operational tasks with care and confidentiality.

What we’re looking for

• 3+ years supporting senior executives in a fast-paced environment (startup or high-growth preferred)
• Based in or able to work daily from our NYC Office
• Impeccable judgment, discretion, and professionalism with sensitive information
• Outstanding organizational skills and a bias toward clear written and verbal communication
• Calm under pressure; you anticipate needs and solve problems before they escalate
• Comfort with modern tools (calendar, docs, Slack, travel apps) and a willingness to learn new systems
