Executive Assistant

Team: CEO Office
Location: Flexible / Remote
Reporting to: CEO

Role Overview

Rwazi operates in a high-velocity, AI-native environment where clarity, follow-through, and structured thinking are essential.

The Executive Assistant supports the CEO in day-to-day executive operations — documentation, planning cadence, structured follow-ups, and internal coordination.

This is a foundational role inside the CEO’s office.

While the title is traditional, the expectation is not.

We are looking for someone with former founder instincts or strong analytical pedigree — who understands strategy, but is comfortable operating in a support capacity without ego.

This role requires intelligence, discipline, and humility.

Core Mandate

The Executive Assistant is accountable for:

  • Maintaining executive documentation rigor

  • Structuring meetings into clear outputs and actions

  • Tracking cross-functional commitments

  • Supporting board and planning cycles

  • Reducing cognitive load on the CEO

This role strengthens executive execution hygiene.

Key ResponsibilitiesExecutive Documentation & Structuring
  • Capture high-quality, structured notes in executive and board meetings

  • Translate discussions into clear action items with owners and deadlines

  • Maintain organized, searchable documentation systems

  • Draft memos, summaries, and internal briefs

Planning & Cadence Management
  • Support quarterly and annual planning processes

  • Assist in preparing board decks and executive materials

  • Maintain visibility over key company-wide priorities

  • Ensure follow-through across functional leaders

Cross-Functional Coordination
  • Track execution commitments across teams

  • Follow up on deadlines and deliverables

  • Escalate slippage early and objectively

  • Maintain structured dashboards of ongoing initiatives

Operational & Administrative Support
  • Manage executive scheduling and prioritization

  • Coordinate internal and external communications

  • Maintain high professional standards in all outputs

Role Impact

Strong performance results in:

  • Clear executive decision trails

  • Fewer dropped commitments

  • Tighter cross-functional alignment

  • Faster execution cycles

  • Increased CEO focus on strategic priorities

What This Role Is Not
  • This is not a strategic leadership role

  • This is not independent product or revenue ownership

  • This is not a stepping stone to immediate executive authority

This role requires comfort operating in a support function — regardless of prior seniority.

Qualifications and Profile

We are looking for individuals who demonstrate:

  • Former founder, operator, or builder experience OR strong analytical background (consulting, finance, research, technical environments)

  • Exceptional structured writing ability

  • Strong analytical reasoning and pattern recognition

  • Comfort synthesizing complex discussions into clarity

  • High attention to detail

  • Ability to operate without ego in a support capacity

  • Strong discretion and professionalism

Former founders are welcome — provided they are motivated by discipline and execution, not status.

Cultural Fit

We value individuals who:

  • Think sharply but act humbly

  • Prefer execution over visibility

  • Take pride in structured output

  • Care about precision

  • Follow through consistently

How Candidates Are Evaluated

Candidates are evaluated based on:

  • Clarity and structure of written work

  • Analytical depth in summarizing complex discussions

  • Discipline in tracking commitments

  • Comfort supporting executive workflows

  • Absence of ego in operational contexts

Summary

The Executive Assistant strengthens the CEO’s office by applying founder-level thinking and analytical rigor to executive documentation, planning, and follow-through.

This role is foundational to maintaining speed, clarity, and execution discipline as Rwazi scales.
