Executive Assistant

Serval • San Francisco, CA

7d • $100,000 - $190,000

About The Position

As an Executive Assistant at Serval, you will act as a force multiplier for the sales leadership team. You will own scheduling complexity, coordinate logistics, streamline communication, and systematically remove operational friction so the Head of Sales and sales leaders can stay focused on revenue.
This role has direct leverage on sales leadership effectiveness. The right candidate will materially increase execution velocity and ensure leaders remain focused on the highest-impact priorities. This is not a reactive administrative position — it requires anticipation, sound judgment, prioritization discipline, and operational rigor.
You will gain visibility into go-to-market strategy, deal cycles, and growth initiatives while playing a foundational role in scaling Serval's sales organization.

Requirements

• 2+ years supporting sales leaders, C-level executives, or founders; startup experience strongly preferred
• Advanced calendar management skills with strong prioritization judgment
• Proactive operating style — you anticipate needs before they surface
• High attention to detail while managing multiple concurrent workstreams
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication skills
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and evolving priorities
• Strong discretion and professional judgment, especially around pipeline and revenue data
• High technical fluency and enthusiasm for modern tools and workflows
• Excellent organizational and time-management discipline
• "No task is too small" mindset paired with strategic awareness
• Composed, professional presence in fast-moving, quota-driven environments

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting sales or GTM leaders in high-growth tech startups (Series A-C)
• Familiarity with modern productivity and sales tools (e.g., Notion, Slack, Ashby, Salesforce, or outbound sequencing platforms)

Responsibilities

• Own and optimize complex calendars for the Head of Sales and senior sales leaders, balancing prospect meetings, internal reviews, and cross-functional priorities
• Triage inbound requests and safeguard leadership time using clear prioritization principles
• Coordinate domestic and international travel end-to-end, including dynamic adjustments around deal timelines and QBRs
• Manage sensitive and confidential matters — including pipeline data, comp information, and candidate conversations — with discretion and sound judgment
• Serve as a liaison across sales leadership, the broader GTM team, candidates, and external partners
• Improve internal communication flow and organizational clarity across a fast-moving sales org
• Track initiatives, action items, and cross-functional dependencies to ensure follow-through
• Design and refine systems that increase sales leadership and team-wide productivity
• Support planning and execution of sales offsites, team events, SKOs, and QBRs
• Contribute to a structured, high-functioning in-office and virtual environment
• Assist with vendor coordination, subscriptions, asset management, and operational logistics
