Executive Assistant (Miami)
We are a lifestyle brand! We are on a mission to provide the world with simple, wholesome food and beverage items that fit today's lifestyle, offering an intimate - yet fast and consistent - experience to our customers. We love and take pride in what we do, and we currently offer an exciting opportunity to join a thriving and ever-growing brand in this industry. ROLE OVERVIEW We are seeking an exceptional Executive Assistant to provide high-level administrative, organizational, and operational support to our Chief People & Culture Officer and Chief Operating Officer. This is an opportunity for a highly organized, proactive, and resourceful professional who enjoys working closely with senior leaders and playing an important role in helping a growing organization operate effectively. This is more than a traditional administrative role. We're looking for someone who can become a trusted partner to the executives they support, helping them manage their time, stay organized, prepare for important meetings, develop executive-level materials, and maintain focus on the priorities that matter most. The right person will be equally comfortable managing complex calendars, coordinating travel, developing polished PowerPoint presentations, preparing executive briefings, and following through on important commitments. Supporting two executives requires exceptional judgment, flexibility, and the ability to balance competing priorities without losing attention to detail. This individual must be comfortable navigating a fast-paced environment, handling sensitive information, building strong relationships, and taking ownership of responsibilities with minimal direction. We're looking for someone who can take broad direction, organize information, anticipate what's coming, and turn ideas into action. Whether it's building a presentation for an upcoming leadership meeting, preparing a briefing ahead of an important conversation, or making sure commitments don't fall through the cracks, this person takes ownership and makes things happen. Above all, we want someone who makes the executives they support more organized, more prepared, more focused, and more effective.
