About the Role
At Pavago, we’re hiring on behalf of one of our clients for an Executive Assistant to serve as the trusted right hand to a Principal overseeing a diverse portfolio of businesses, investments, and personal commitments.
This is not a traditional Executive Assistant role. It’s a high-trust, high-autonomy position where you’ll operate as the operational hub between the Principal, executives, advisors, attorneys, partners, and key stakeholders.
You’ll protect the Principal’s time, manage critical communications, coordinate priorities, and ensure that both business and personal operations run seamlessly. Success in this role requires exceptional judgment, discretion, ownership, and the ability to anticipate needs before they arise.
If you’re proactive, highly organized, and thrive supporting senior executives in fast-paced environments, this role is built for you.
