Executive Assistant to Chief Executive Officer

Are you bored with only finding Corporate America cubicle positions available as an Executive Assistant? Has the workplace in a post-COVID world stolen away your ability to be the "go to" person in a busy and exciting office environment currently plagued with a partially remote environment? Is it really possible to find a key role helping the CEO and a Leadership Team in a fun, quirky and creative environment? Do you love that rush you feel when you KNOW you made a difference for the company you work for? Wouldn't it be cool to work at a place where you are offering a product they truly need for their business to grow? Are you looking for a crazy cool work environment that thrives on teamwork and going above our customers expectations each and every day?
