Personal and Executive Assistant to the CEO

You were born for this.

You’ve got a sixth sense for what visionary, entrepreneurial leaders need—sometimes before they do. You bring calm to chaos, clarity to confusion, and creativity to just about everything. Part genius, part MacGyver, you can last-minute book a boutique hotel in Singapore, whip up a healthy + delicious meal for ten, check in on the bathroom renovation, and jump-start the Jeep—with a cactus. This afternoon? You'll answer emails, organize the incoming stream of opportunities, and plan the next brand vision meeting.

You thrive on momentum and making things work better. You're the go-to, the glue, the one everyone counts on when it matters. And even though your work doesn’t fit neatly into boxes called Monday through Friday and 9 to 5, you wouldn’t have it any other way. You love the constant connection and flexibility that comes with being "on call" and "most needed". (Your mom still has no idea what you do for a living :-).

At Life is Good, we’re fueled by optimism, and we’re looking for a Personal and Executive Assistant for our founder and CEO, who’s energized by purpose, people, and the beautiful unpredictability of it all. He's a high-energy executive leader who’s juggling brand vision, people leadership, business opportunities, and the continuously moving pieces of his ever-expanding personal life. You’ll be his right hand, sounding board, and a steady force for good in his life.
