BIG PICTURE:
We are looking for a detailed, organized and proactive Executive Assistant to support our co-founder Laura Avila across her professional and personal schedule. This person will manage calendars, travel and communications while keeping ongoing priorities and special projects organized and moving forward. An interest in beauty, fashion or entertainment is a plus.
Why This Role Matters:

• Coordinate domestic and international business travel, including detailed itineraries and logistics.
• Build and maintain project trackers with clear priorities, owners, next steps, deadlines and status updates.
• Turn meeting notes and requests into action items; follow up with the right people and flag dependencies, overdue work and decisions that need Laura's attention.
• Coordinate ongoing and special projects with internal teams, external contacts and vendors, keeping information organized and work on track.
• Prepare meeting materials, take notes and maintain records so important commitments are easy to find.
• Handle communications and serve as a discreet point of contact across departments and external relationships.
• Coordinate public outings, personal appointments and errands, including beauty and fashion recommendations when needed.
• Help coordinate occasional household and service-provider needs as part of personal support.
WHAT YOU HAVE:
• 3 years of experience supporting a high-level executive. Experience supporting someone in entertainment, beauty or a creative space is preferred.
• Experience coordinating projects and maintaining trackers that make priorities, deadlines and follow-ups clear.
• Strong Google Workspace skills, including Sheets, Docs and Calendar, AI and comfort learning project-management tools.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, organization and attention to detail.
• The ability to prioritize, adapt and handle multiple requests in a fast-paced environment.
• Discretion with sensitive personal and business information.
• Resourcefulness, critical thinking and a strong sense of urgency and follow-through.
• A collaborative approach and the confidence to work through unfamiliar tasks.

WHERE IT ALL GOES DOWN:
