Executive Assistant

Remote Raven · Remote, South Africa, ZA · about 2 months ago

You will act as the right hand to a fast-moving CEO managing multiple businesses and a 45–50 person team. This environment is dynamic, ambiguous, and fast. You will not be given perfect instructions — you are expected to figure things out, move quickly, and execute with precision.

We are specifically looking for individuals with a Catalyst or Persuader profile—people who can build relationships fast, influence outcomes, and keep momentum in high-pressure environments.

If you need structure, predictability, or detailed instructions, this role will not work.

If you thrive in motion, solve problems in real time, and keep things moving—this is a strong fit.

What You Will Do

  • Manage complex calendars across multiple businesses and stakeholders
  • Implement and optimize scheduling systems and automation
  • Attend meetings, capture decisions, and track execution
  • Drive follow-through on priorities, deadlines, and commitments
  • Support both business and occasional personal executive needs
  • Maintain organized systems, documentation, and knowledge bases
  • Use tools like Microsoft Office, HubSpot, OneNote, Adobe, and password vaults
  • Leverage AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini) for efficiency and output
  • Act as a trusted operator who keeps pace with rapid decision-making

Work Environment

  • Fully remote
  • High-speed, high-accountability culture
  • Minimal supervision — high trust
  • Constant change — priorities shift quickly

What to Expect

You will work closely with a visionary, high-energy CEO who moves quickly and communicates briefly.

Your role is to

Stay grounded

Keep operations moving

Bring structure without slowing things down

Maintain momentum under pressure

If you need predictability, this role will feel overwhelming.

If you thrive in fast-moving environments and enjoy solving problems in real time, this role will suit you.

Requirements

High sociability — naturally connects and communicates with ease
Moderate to high consistency — structured but flexible
Moderate to high precision — detail-aware without overthinking
Moderate to high intensity — matches a fast-paced CEO

What You Must Have

  • Proven experience as an Executive Assistant supporting senior leaders
  • Strong calendar management and follow-through capability
  • Ability to operate in a fast-paced, low-instruction environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • High accountability and ownership mindset
  • Tech-savvy with ability to learn systems quickly
