The Ideal Candidate
As the Executive Assistant to the CEO, you’ll serve as a trusted partner in managing the CEO’s time, communications, and priorities. This is not a traditional EA role — it blends high-level executive support with strategic collaboration, making it ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced, dynamic environments and has an interest in SaaS, outdoor recreation, or hospitality technology.

Coordinate extensive travel logistics, including client visits, conferences, and team offsites.

Track follow-ups from leadership meetings and ensure accountability across departments.
Collaborate with product and engineering leads to ensure smooth execution of strategic priorities.
Strategic Partnership
Serve as a thought partner to the CEO on client engagement, industry trends, and growth opportunities in the outdoor recreation, parks, and hospitality sectors.
Draft communications, presentations, and internal/external updates with a clear and compelling voice.
Support relationship-building efforts with key clients and stakeholders, including pre/post-meeting documentation and insights.
Cross-Functional Coordination
Liaise with internal teams (Product, Engineering, Marketing, Client Success) to gather information and facilitate decision-making.
Represent the CEO’s perspective and priorities when appropriate.
Qualifications
Experienced executive assistant or chief-of-staff-level support (5+ years preferred), ideally in SaaS, tech, or industries related to outdoor recreation or hospitality.
Exceptionally organized, proactive, and adaptable — thrives in ambiguity and can juggle multiple priorities with grace.
A natural communicator with strong writing and interpersonal skills.
Emotionally intelligent with high discretion, integrity, and judgment.
Comfortable with technology tools like Microsoft Outlook, Teams, Slack, and project management systems.
Passionate about outdoor spaces, travel, or parks/hospitality is a huge plus.
