Remote Senior Executive Assistant Jobs in Oregon

The Opportunity:

Grafana is looking for a highly motivated Senior Executive Assistant to support our SVP, Global Customer Solutions. This is not a traditional EA role. While you will bring strong executive support skills to the table, the primary differentiator here is your ability to think and operate as a program manager - owning the coordination, organization, and forward momentum of a broad portfolio of strategic initiatives across our global Customer Solutions organization.

Working closely with the SVP, you will serve as an operational hub for the team - ensuring programs move forward, decisions get made, and nothing falls through the cracks. You are someone who sees coordination as a strategic function, not an administrative one. You are energized by complexity, thrive in fast-moving environments, and take pride in bringing structure to ambiguity.

You bring excellent verbal, written, and organizational skills along with a consistent track record of supporting senior executives and driving programs in a dynamic, high-growth tech environment. You are high energy with a fun-loving, empathetic attitude, yet you are a mature professional gifted with the ability to handle challenging situations with grace and tact. You are  not just eager to learn - you are proactive about leveraging AI tools and automation to make yourself and the people around you more effective. 

What You'll Be Doing:

Executive Support

• Maintain a busy calendar and daily schedule for the SVP, fielding and prioritizing requests with sound judgment
• Coordinate extensive domestic and international travel
• Help triage, organize, and draft responses to emails as necessary
• Manage expenses in a proactive, fiscally alert manner
• Ensure and maintain confidentiality of all appropriate communications and documents
• Attend meetings, document discussions, and distribute action items
• Coordinate and host group meetings, leadership meals, and management team off-sites
• Work with sales and customer success teams to coordinate customer meetings and visits
• Help plan and execute events and leadership meetings, including occasional domestic and international travel for logistics and on-site support
• Handle occasional personal tasks for the executive as needed
• Work closely with other EAs at Grafana to coordinate on events, calendars, and best practices across a globally distributed organization
• Coordinate temporary office and meeting space as needed

Program Management

• Own the operational cadence of the Global Customer Solutions org - tracking active programs, surfacing blockers, and ensuring key initiatives stay on schedule
• Maintain a centralized program tracker across all strategic workstreams, providing the SVP and leadership team with a clear, real-time view of status, priorities, and open decisions
• Drive accountability across cross-functional programs by coordinating with team leads, following up on commitments, and escalating when needed
• Help design and implement lightweight but effective program management processes and frameworks that scale with the team
• Help prepare and maintain materials for leadership reviews, all-hands meetings, and executive briefings - including agendas, status decks, and pre-reads
• Assist in the planning and execution of quarterly business reviews and organizational planning cycles
• Identify inefficiencies in how the team operates and bring forward proposals to improve them
• Serve as a coordination layer between the SVP and key internal stakeholders including Sales, Marketing, Finance, People Ops, and Product
• Support the rollout of new org-wide initiatives by managing timelines, tracking deliverables, and communicating progress

AI & Automation

• Proactively identify tasks and workflows that can be automated or accelerated through AI tools and bring forward proposals to implement them
• Build and maintain lightweight automations that reduce manual overhead for the SVP and the broader team (e.g. meeting summaries, status updates, reporting)
• Stay current on emerging AI and productivity tools and serve as an internal resource for how to apply them effectively
• Prior experience with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Notion AI, Zapier, etc.) is a strong plus 

What Makes You a Great Fit:

• You are located in PST or MST timezone
• You have experience in a tech or high-growth startup environment
• You have proven success supporting one or more VP or C-level executives in a dynamic, fast-moving environment
• You have hands-on program or project management experience - you know how to run a workstream, not just support one
• You are someone who is growing toward a program management career and sees this role as a meaningful step in that direction
• You operate with an extremely high sense of urgency and thrive in ambiguous, ever-changing environments
• You have experience managing internal communications, planning executive off-sites, and coordinating content for leadership and executive reviews
• You are highly organized with exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple competing priorities simultaneously
• You handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion and integrity
• You have experience working remotely and/or internationally and understand the nuances of globally distributed collaboration
• You are an excellent communicator across all channels - written, verbal, and in person - and can build strong relationships in a remote-first environment
• You are eager to leverage AI and automation tools to work smarter and are not afraid to experiment
• Highly competent with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Calendar)
• BA/BS degree preferred; PMP or equivalent certification is a plus
