The Problems You'll Solve

At Carta, our employees set out on a mission to unlock the power of equity ownership for more people in more places. We believe that the problems we solve today unlock the opportunities of tomorrow. As an Executive Assistant, you’ll work to: 

• Build trusted business partnerships with your executive, their leadership team, and other key stakeholders across the business
• Understand how Carta operates and its core products and offerings. Know who is responsible for what, which teams are in which office and who our executives and senior leaders are
• Proactively and accurately  manage heavy calendars (which includes internal and external meetings)
• Triage and reply to emails, Lattice tasks/Google comments and Slack channels as needed
• Plan and execute team meetings, events and offsites; including the coordination of agendas and materials, budgets, logistics, hospitality and more
• Book travel and process expenses timely; exercise good judgment and adhere our travel and expense policy
• Approve expenses, travel and time off requests for your executive’s direct reports
• Maintain a pulse on the sentiment of the organization serving as a liaison between your executive and their team

The Team You'll Work With

We are looking for an Executive Assistant (‘EA’) to join our EA team and support our Chief Strategy Officer and their organization. This person will report to an EA Manager and work closely with our EA team, the BizOps & Strategy team, and  the broader leadership team at Carta.

Carta’s EA team is small and wears many hats. We work both autonomously for our executives - scheduling, meeting prep, travel, expenses  and projects - but also collaborate as a team on broader projects such as  events, offsites, hiring, training and  best practices. We sit in offices across New York, Sandy and San Francisco.

About You

You are a roll-up-your-sleeves, “get in the weeds,” individual that has experience supporting multiple senior leaders  in a fast paced startup environment. You are incredibly detail oriented, thoughtful and proactive. You can block and tackle for your executive and navigate ambiguity. You know how to find common ground with leadership and peers alike to build relationships. You are professional and eager to learn.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of Executive Assistant experience  supporting a senior leadership role
• Heavy calendar management and travel experience
• Ability to effectively multitask and prioritize on a daily basis
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

At Carta, you’re not just an employee. You’re a builder who is creating  infrastructure that accelerates innovation and empowers more ownership. Cartans are helpful, relentless, unconventional and kind; representing Carta’s Identity Traits. They work collaboratively and cross functionally  to challenge the status quo; working towards a common goal of creating more owners in the private markets.
