Sr. Executive Assistant to CEO

Transact Campus • Atlanta, AZ

1d • $90,000 - $130,000

About The Position

We are seeking a highly capable Senior Executive Assistant who will operate as a strategic partner to CEO. This role combines executive support, project coordination, and elements of Chief of Staff–style partnership — but is not a full CoS position. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-moving environment, anticipates needs, and ensures CEO stays aligned to top priorities across meetings, travel, and projects. This is a high-visibility role interacting with senior leaders, customers, and cross‑functional teams. The right person will bring a calm, solutions-oriented mindset and the ability to manage complex tasks independently.

Requirements

• 7+ years supporting C‑suite or senior executives in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.
• Proven experience managing complex calendars and travel for senior leaders.
• Ability to “run point” on projects with minimal oversight.
• Strong organizational judgment and ability to anticipate needs several steps ahead.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfortable interacting with Executive Leadership Teams and board-level stakeholders.
• High EQ, professionalism, and discretion.
• Flexible and able to adapt to shifting priorities in real time.

Responsibilities

• Serve as a trusted partner to CEO, acting with sound judgment, confidentiality, and executive presence.
• Proactively organize and manage a complex, dynamic calendar with shifting priorities.
• Ensure CEO is prepared for all meetings, including agendas, briefs, and action summaries.
• Run point on assigned projects, driving alignment, follow‑through, and timely decisions.
• Track action items, deadlines, and deliverables across multiple teams and stakeholders.
• Anticipate needs and remove operational blockers before they arise.
• Coordinate agenda development and finalization.
• Prepare pre-read materials and ensure all inputs are collected and organized.
• Work with ELT members to confirm decisions, action items, and accountability.
• Circulate outcomes and follow‑up tasks back to CEO.
• Manage logistics, timing, and supporting materials for board meetings.
• Provide “what are the options?” recommendations (e.g., earlier flights, alternative schedules, etc.).
• Ensure CEO has everything needed to maximize time and productivity.
• Coordinate all aspects of domestic and occasional international travel.
• Build itineraries that consider personal travel, business constraints, and last‑minute changes.
• Anticipate better routing or timing options (e.g., identifying a same‑day flight when a meeting ends early).
• Manage proactive adjustments (e.g., rerouting from AZ → Nashville without unnecessary stops).
• Serve as the liaison between CEO and internal/external partners.
• Draft and edit communications, meeting notes, and follow-ups as needed.
• Represent CEO’s priorities professionally and tactfully.
• Maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive information with care.
• Develop and refine organizational systems that improve efficiency.
• Build repeatable workflows for meetings, travel, and recurring business rhythms.

Benefits

• Employer paid Life Insurance / AD&D / Short-Term Voluntary Long-Term Disability Insurance / Term Life Insurance / AD&D
• Access to FSA Plans & Commuter Benefit Plans
• 401(k) Savings Plan where the Company Match of $0.50 for each $1 you contribute on the first 8% of pay. Both your contribution and the company contribution are immediately 100% vested.
• Access to the Roper Employee Stock Purchase Plan
