Pay Range: $35-$55/hour DOE

A well-established San Diego organization is seeking an experienced Executive Assistant to support a senior leader and commercial business team. This is an excellent opportunity for a polished administrative professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys staying several steps ahead, and takes ownership of high-level executive support responsibilities.

This role is ideal for someone who can confidently manage complex calendars, coordinate competing priorities, and serve as a trusted partner to leadership while maintaining a strong attention to detail.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Manage a high-volume executive calendar, including scheduling, prioritization, and meeting coordination
  • Anticipate scheduling conflicts and proactively recommend solutions
  • Provide inbox management and administrative support for senior leadership
  • Coordinate meetings, prepare materials, and assist with meeting logistics
  • Process and code expenses and receipts
  • Support department projects and team initiatives
  • Assist with event coordination, team functions, and leadership meetings
  • Create and update presentations, reports, and business documents
  • Partner with leadership to ensure priorities and deadlines remain on track

What We're Looking For

  • Previous Executive Assistant, Senior Administrative Assistant, or high-level administrative support experience
  • Strong experience managing complex executive calendars
  • Advanced organizational and prioritization skills
  • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions with minimal direction
  • Strong Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Office skills
  • Professional communication and relationship-building abilities
  • Ability to handle confidential information with discretion
  • Experience supporting leadership teams in a corporate environment preferred

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Support a respected leadership team within a stable and growing organization
  • Opportunity to make an immediate impact in a highly visible role
  • Hybrid work schedule with Fridays currently remote
  • Collaborative, professional culture that values initiative and accountability
  • Competitive compensation with flexibility based on experience

Pay Details: $35.00 to $55.00 per hour
