Job Description: Founder’s Office Manager (Executive Assistant to the CEO)
The Mission
Apty is hiring a Founder’s Office Manager to be the CEO’s leverage engine — the person who protects the CEO’s attention, runs follow -through like clockwork, and ensures investor and board motions are always tight, prepared, and on time.
This is a high -trust, high -context role supporting only the Founder/CEO. You will manage not just Apty -related priorities, but all key commitments of the Founder/CEO so their calendar, inbox, and obligations operate as one integrated system.
Why This Role is Different (and What You’ll Learn)
This is not a calendar -admin job. It is a strategic execution role where your output is CEO time reclaimed, priorities shipped, and chaos removed.
You will work closely with a dynamic founder who has built companies from the ground up, and you will learn how founders:
- Prioritize when everything feels urgent
- Communicate with investors and boards with clarity and confidence
- Handle high -stakes customer situations and protect relationships
- Convert decisions into execution rhythms and measurable follow -through
- Build operating discipline in a fast -moving company
What You’ll Own
1. Inbox Ownership
- Own the Founder/CEO’s inbox end -to -end: triage, prioritize, route, and draft responses in the Founder/CEO’s voice.
- Create a daily CEO brief: decisions needed, deadlines, key threads, and risks.
- Ensure nothing important gets missed and nothing trivial steals Founder/CEO focus.
2. CEO Attention and Calendar Control
- Manage the Founder/CEO calendar as a strategic asset: protect deep work, reduce internal interruptions, and enforce meeting quality.
- Structure customer calls and investor coordination with context, preparation, and clean follow -through.
- Convert ad -hoc pings into a system: schedule, delegate, or close.
3. Follow -ups and Closure (Your KPI)
- Run a follow -up tracker across internal and external commitments.
- Track action items, owners, and deadlines, and drive closure without the Founder/CEO chasing.
- Keep execution crisp and organized: fewer repeats, fewer misses, more momentum.
4. Board and Investor Motion
- Coordinate board cadence end -to -end: scheduling, deck preparation logistics (inputs, version control, timelines), MoM (Minutes of Meeting), and action tracking.
- Coordinate investor interactions with speed, professionalism, and strong preparation hygiene.
5. Founder/CEO Commitments Beyond Apty (High Trust)
- Manage the Founder/CEO’s non -Apty commitments — scheduling, coordination, reminders, and follow -through.
- Handle sensitive information with discretion and maturity, acting as a trusted extension of the Founder/CEO.
What Success Looks Like (60–90 Days)
- Inbox fully under control: fast triage, clean drafting, and clear escalation rules.
- CEO calendar reflects true priorities: fewer interruptions and higher -quality meetings.
- Follow -ups consistently close; the CEO no longer acts as the reminder system.
- Board and investor workflows run predictably, with minimal last -minute chaos.
Requirements
- 3–5 years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Founder’s Office Manager, or Executive Coordinator in a quick -paced environment.
- Strong written communication and judgment (knows what to escalate vs. own).
- High ownership and reliability — someone who does not drop threads.
- Ability to stay calm under pressure and maintain discretion with sensitive matters.
- System -builder mindset — someone who creates order rather than reacting to disorder.
