About the Role
CAI Software is seeking a highly organized, proactive, and discreet Executive Assistant to serve as a trusted partner to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. This role is the operational anchor for the Office of the CEO and is fundamental to how senior leadership executes against an aggressive growth, M&A, and value-creation agenda.
This is a high-visibility position and the successful candidate will inherit established relationships with the Board, sponsor partners, and senior leadership, and will be expected to maintain — and elevate — the standard of excellence, confidentiality, and responsiveness those stakeholders rely on. The ideal candidate brings prior experience supporting C-level executives in a private equity-backed, financial, or fast-paced enterprise software environment, and operates with a high level of professionalism, discretion, and anticipatory judgment.
What You'll Do
- Serve as a trusted right hand to the CEO and CFO, anticipating needs, removing friction, and protecting executive time and focus.
- Manage complex, ever-changing CEO and CFO calendars across multiple time zones; resolve conflicts with sound judgment on priority and trade-offs.
- Schedule and coordinate internal and external meetings, including leadership team, customer, partner, sponsor, and board-level interactions; prepare agendas, pre-reads, and logistics so each meeting starts on time and ends with clear outcomes.
- Act as gatekeeper for incoming communications, requests, document signing, and meeting invitations; triage and align with quarterly priorities and value-creation initiatives.
- Prepare, format, and proof high-quality reports, presentations, and briefing materials for internal leadership, board, sponsor, and external audiences.
- Coordinate end-to-end logistics for Board of Directors and sponsor (PE owner) meetings — scheduling, materials assembly, distribution, dinners, and follow-up correspondence.
- Partner with the CFO and Finance team on board books, quarterly reporting packages, and committee materials; maintain board portal and secure data-room organization (e.g., Diligent, BoardVantage, SharePoint).
- Support the CFO with the rhythm of the financial calendar — month-end and quarter-end close, audit, budget, lender reporting, tax, and insurance timelines; coordinate scheduling and document flow with auditors, lenders, tax advisors, and brokers.
