Executive Assistant
This role operates as a strategic force multiplier for senior AI company executives, managing complex calendars, travel, and communications across multiple time zones while anticipating priorities before they escalate. Beyond traditional scheduling, the Executive Assistant exercises sound judgment to optimize how leaders allocate their time against the highest-impact initiatives—whether that's closing deals, managing board relationships, or scaling the organization. They serve as a trusted operational partner embedded within fast-moving AI teams, coordinating across customers, investors, and internal stakeholders to ensure seamless execution of critical meetings, offsites, and strategic initiatives while handling sensitive information with discretion.

This role is advertised at 2 levels, so a single figure for the role would describe none of them. Experience and pay are the midpoints for each level on its own.
| Level | Share | Median years | Median pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry | 44%(35) | 3 | $136k |
| Mid | 43%(34) | 5 | — |
A dash means too few postings stated it to report a midpoint. Most companies do not publish a salary band, so pay is indicative rather than a market rate. 3 levels with fewer than 10 open postings are not shown.
“fluency with AI tools such as Claude or ChatGPT”
“AI-forward: uses modern tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Notion AI) to move faster and produce higher-quality work”
“Lead the automation and AI initiative from EA work. You'll identify where automation adds real value, pilot new tools with your team, and turn what works into the standard.”
“use AI tools comfortably in daily work”
Requirements are a share of every open posting, so a role missing from this list is one where almost nobody asks. Work mode is different: many postings never say, so that figure counts only the ones that do. A posting stops being advertised when it is filled, cancelled or reorganised, so read the last figure as how long these stay on the market, not as time to hire.
