Role
Who you are
- Take pride in being dependable and doing things the right way, even when no one is watching
- Are naturally organized (or excited to become more organized)
- Stay calm and courteous when things get busy or unexpected
- Ask questions, want to understand the “why,” and enjoy learning new skills
- Are comfortable supporting others and don’t need to be the center of attention
- Believe no task is “beneath you” and that great teams win together
- We care far more about how you work than where you’ve worked. We’re especially excited about candidates who demonstrate:
- Hard work: You follow through, meet deadlines, and take responsibility
- Humility: You’re a team player, open to feedback, and eager to improve
- A desire to learn: You’re curious, adaptable, and motivated to grow
- If you’ve ever been the person customers ask for by name, the coworker everyone relies on, or the one who keeps things running when it’s busy—you already have skills that matter here
What the job involves
- As an Executive Assistant, you’ll be a key partner to senior leadership and an essential part of keeping things running smoothly. Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing calendars, scheduling meetings, and keeping priorities organized
- Handling email and communications with professionalism and discretion
- Preparing documents, notes, and follow-ups so nothing falls through the cracks
- Coordinating logistics for meetings, travel, and projects
- Acting as a thoughtful point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
- Anticipating needs and proactively solving problems before they become urgent
- Learning how decisions are made and helping translate plans into action
- This is a role where reliability, attention to detail, and a strong sense of ownership matter every day
- What You’ll Gain
- Exposure to leadership and how decisions are made
- Real opportunities to build new professional skills
- A supportive environment where effort and integrity are recognized
- A role with room to grow as you grow
Our take
Discovering new drugs is essential in improving how diseases are treated, but existing methods are outdated. Many diseases are highly complex and have so far been impossible to treat with drugs, but developments in AI-driven computing present the potential to change this.
Relay Therapeutics provides an AI-driven drug discovery platform called Dynamo that uses cutting-edge experimental computational approaches to identify disease treatments that have previously been deemed untreatable. The platform's AI approach is driven by a pipeline of therapeutic candidates which hold an initial focus on precision oncology and genetic disease treatment.
AI is being used within the medical industry to aid in a wide variety of scenarios such as facility optimization and automated diagnoses, but Relay Therapeutics has smartly applied it to drug discovery. Through this more targeted approach, the company aims to rapidly develop genetic disease treatments and optimize the process of precision oncology, with plans to expand into further disciplines in the future. It's continued development of new products shows that Relay is keeping up the pace.
