Job description
BURKE+CO.THE GIST:
Our client, a well-backed & fast-growing fintech company, is seeking an expert Executive Assistant to support several members of their C-suite.
The ideal candidate is a strategic, operationally minded person who has experience supporting high-level leadership within a tech startup or venture capital firm.
This is a meaty role at the center of the executive team where you will serve as a force multiplier — creating clarity in complexity, protecting time, and enabling leadership to operate at their highest levelTHE NITTY GRITTY:
Executive Inbox & Communication Management
Manage high-volume external and internal inboxes (investors, partners, vendors, internal teams)
Triage and flag urgent matters; archive and eliminate noise
Create clear daily priorities so executives know what requires immediate attention vs. what can wait
Draft and refine professional communications on behalf of leadership
Strategic Calendar & Time Optimization
Design structured, intentional calendars that minimize context switching
Group similar meetings to reduce cognitive fatigue
Protect time for deep work, gym, lunch, and personal priorities
Provide daily schedule briefs so leaders walk into high-stakes conversations prepared.
Accountability & Executive Effectiveness
Push back respectfully when schedules drift or priorities are compromised
Ensure late-afternoon hours are protected to support work-life boundaries
Act as a gatekeeper and strategic partner, not just a scheduler
Operational & Weekly Reporting Support
Partner with the executives to collect weekly updates from 10+ team members
Synthesize complex inputs into concise executive summaries for the CEO
Follow up across teams confidently and diplomatically to ensure timely submissions
Bring structure to recurring reporting processes.
Culture & Community Building
Help fuel a highly social, close-knit culture by organizing team events
Proactively learn what teammates are into and turn those interests into shared experiences (fitness classes, workshops, team outings, etc.).
Act as a connector across teams — someone who naturally builds community and strengthens relationships
Participate in and attend events, not just organize them — this role is for someone who truly enjoys being part of the crew
Daily Operational Support
Own small but meaningful tasks that improve executive well-being (e.g., consistent lunch ordering, routine building)
Build sustainable systems that reduce friction and decision fatigue
Anticipate needs before they arise
THE ESSENTIALS:
10+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant
Experience supporting leadership at a tech startup or venture capital firm highly preferred
Ability to respond to matters outside of traditional business hours
A track record of supporting multiple senior stakeholders simultaneously
Experience working cross-functionally with competing priorities
Ability to thrive in a dynamic & evolving environment
Polished and professional communication style
Ability to work well independently and as part of a team
Stellar attention to detail
Nimble and adaptable nature
Strong writing skills and experience drafting summaries, briefings, or executive updates
Advanced proficiency in Google Workspace and Slack
Familiarity with task management systems and AI-powered productivity tools preferred
THE CHERRY ON TOP:
Opportunity to become a strategic & trusted partner
Join a tight-knit, supportive team with amazing company culture
LOCATION:
San Francisco, CA (Onsite)
COMPENSATION:
Base salary:
$180,000/yr - $200,000/yr + equity + benefits + great perks (exact compensation will vary based on skills, experience, and expertise)
