Senior Executive Assistant to CMO

GEICO•New York, NY

2d•$32 - $50•Hybrid

About The Position

The Marketing team at GEICO needs to move fast, stay organized, and show up well in every room. Making that possible is a real competitive advantage and a must-do. This Executive Assistant will be the operational backbone for the CMO. You'll manage the calendar, the logistics, the details, and the moments that matter — from a high-stakes executive offsite to a last-minute travel change to making sure a leader walks into a meeting with everything they need. You'll also bring a hospitality mindset to everything you touch: anticipating needs before they're expressed, handling the personal and professional with equal grace, and making the office feel like a place people want to be. If you are a highly-organized go-getter who wants to learn how a major marketing organization operates from the inside — and you're the kind of person who gets energy from making other people's work lives run beautifully — this is a great place to build a career.

Requirements

3+ years of experience supporting high-volume senior leaders in an executive assistant, office coordinator, hospitality, events, or similar role.
Event planning or hospitality experience — formal or informal. You've planned something that had moving parts and made it look easy.
Strong Microsoft Office skills — Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook. Comfortable building a clean deck or a tracking spreadsheet from scratch.
Comfort with AI tools — familiarity with Claude, Microsoft Copilot, or similar AI assistants to help draft communications, summarize information, and move faster on everyday tasks.
Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple competing priorities without dropping anything.
High emotional intelligence and discretion — you read rooms well and can be trusted with confidential information.
Clear, polished written communication — you write emails and documents that reflect well on the people you support.
Handle sensitive personal and professional information with complete discretion and sound judgment.

Nice To Haves

Bachelor's degree preferred but not required. Relevant experience and demonstrated capability matter more.
Experience supporting a fast-paced executive in a corporate or agency environment.
Experience working in marketing organizations, either directly or as a partner.
Familiarity with SharePoint, Workday, Claude, Microsoft Co-Pilot, and similar enterprise tools.
A background in project management or client services that has sharpened your instinct for anticipating needs.
An interest in marketing, media, or brand — curiosity about the industry you're supporting goes a long way.

Support planning and execution of team events, offsites, leadership dinners, and internal gatherings — handling venue sourcing, catering, AV, run-of-show, and on-site coordination.
Bring a hospitality mindset to every event and interaction: anticipate what's needed, sweat the details, and create experiences that feel effortless to the people in the room.
Work with the Chief of Staff and Marketing Operations team to support external-facing moments — agency meetings, partner visits, executive presentations — ensuring the environment and logistics reflect well on the team.
