About The Position

Our client is seeking a high-level, proactive Executive Assistant to serve as the right-hand to their Founder. This isn't just a scheduling role; it’s a "Director of Chaos" position designed for someone who can navigate the fast-paced, creative world of film and commercial production with poise, wit, and expert precision. The ideal candidate will manage the complexities of 10–15 active directing and producing projects while ensuring the Founder maintains a healthy work-life balance.

Requirements

  • Understand the rhythms of the industry—the "professional but not stiff" vibe.
  • Can talk shop with a grip and hold your own in a room with a CMO.
  • See a problem three days out and solve it before the Founder even knows it exists.
  • Great with people and can read the room, knowing when to push back and when to pivot.
  • Handle high-profile projects and personal schedules with the utmost confidentiality.

Responsibilities

  • Maintain a "bird’s-eye view" of 10–15 simultaneous projects in various stages (development, production, post).
  • Act as the primary point of contact for project producers; track milestones, identify bottlenecks, and ensure the Founder is briefed on critical updates before they become urgent.
  • Utilize project management tools to keep tabs on deliverables, ensuring no creative or logistical detail slips through the cracks.
  • Dive deep into a high-volume inbox to categorize, prioritize, and draft responses.
  • Act as a professional yet approachable filter for incoming requests, ensuring the Founder’s focus remains on high-value creative work.
  • Serve as a warm, professional face for the company when interacting with Fortune 500 executives, agencies, and talent.
  • Manage a complex, shifting calendar that accounts for shoot dates, edit sessions, and travel.
  • Proactively "protect the person." You will be responsible for carving out and defending time for the Founder’s family, friends, and personal well-being, ensuring work doesn't bleed into essential downtime.
  • Coordinate seamless travel and on-set logistics, often on short notice, ensuring the Founder is where they need to be with everything they need to succeed.
