Job description
This role supports the founder and CEO of one of the most ambitious tech companies in the world, an operator known for tackling high-stakes, high-complexity problems at global scale. A former elite competitor turned entrepreneur, the principal has built and exited multiple ventures across tech, crypto, and AI.
Based in Vancouver, he lives at the intersection of precision and pace: running a fast-moving company, traveling internationally, and raising three young children in a health-focused, high-performance household.
The environment is intense but intentional – designed for velocity, clarity, and zero drag. The right assistant will not only keep up, but bring leverage, speed, and discretion to every corner of life and work. If you're energized by the idea of making the complex feel seamless and the impossible feel routine, this is your platform.
Hours:- 8am-6pm, Monday to Friday, with flexibility to be responsive beyond office hours
Location:- Principal's office in downtown Vancouver, Canada
Salary:- Compensation is in the top 1–5% of global Assistant market (base + performance bonus)
Start Date:- ASAP
Interviewing:- ASAP
What Sets You Apart
You’re someone who:
- Has achieved excellence in a domain, any domain – someone who has done the hard thing and got good at it and is likely to repeat that success in new contexts.
- Operates with kind curiosity: intellectually alive, behaviourally attuned, and endlessly resourceful.
- Understands the interconnectedness of knowledge and behaviour – whether through literature, history, systems, or logistics – and uses that lens to anticipate needs before they’re spoken.
- Thinks rigorously and acts fast. You make decisions the principal would make on the Margins – and then execute faster than he could himself.
This is a role for someone who sees behind the curtain, not just manages what’s in front.
North-Star Outcomes (first 90 days)
Inbox Zero: ≤ 5 actionable emails by 8pm daily
Calendar: Zero doublebookings; agendas prepped 24hr ahead
Onboarding Wins: Successfully execute 2–3 complex personal or logistical tasks without rework
Wellness Support: Smoothie, vitamins, and healthy lunch placed on desk within ±2 min weekday schedule
Key Responsibilities:
- Inbox & Calendar Ownership – rigorous triage, proactive follow-ups, agenda foresight
- Logistical & Personal Task Execution – from equipment sourcing to home installations, own the messy middle and deliver results
- Discreet Procurement – navigate constraints (timing, regulatory, availability) while staying reputation-safe
- Office & Wellness Support – ensure key daily routines and office flow run without friction
- Information Coordination – interface with key stakeholders (e.g., CIO) to handle document execution and digital workflows
What Makes You the One:
Experience: 5+ years in a PA/EA role with high complexity, discretion, and autonomy
Execution Stories: Past examples of solving time-bound, complex, or ambiguous problems with high quality outcomes
Cognitive Range: Demonstrated ability to solve hard problems with rigor, creativity, and taste
Skills: Elite organisational systems, Google Workspace, Notion, luxury travel planning, excellent written & spoken English (French a plus)
Traits: Creative fixit brain, anticipatory, unflappable, obsessive about speed & quality, ironclad discretion
Availability: On-site in Downtown Vancouver, Monday–Friday from 8am to 6pm. High responsiveness outside those hours (including evenings and weekends) is expected and valued, especially when urgent needs arise. That said, we understand that longevity requires sustainability. This role is intense but not impractical: we respect boundaries, make space for recovery, and reward extraordinary commitment with commensurate trust, flexibility, and recognition
