Role
Who you are
- 5+ years supporting a CEO or C-suite executive: you have experience working in high-growth startups, scale-ups, or other high-velocity environments where “fast-paced” is an understatement
- Ability to juggle competing priorities: you manage complex calendars and competing stakeholder priorities with ease and execute flawlessly on both strategic and tactical responsibilities, all without breaking a sweat (or at least without showing it!)
- Exceptional organization and attention to detail: nothing falls through the cracks with you, even in a fast-moving, high-stakes environment
- Proactive and anticipatory problem-solver: you see around corners, anticipates needs before they arise, solve problems before anyone knows they exist, and remove friction like it’s your superpower
- Impeccable judgment and discretion: you handle sensitive information with care, make sound decisions independently, and know instinctively when to escalate
- Outstanding written and verbal communication: you communicate clearly and concisely across all levels of the organization, whether you're drafting an email to a board member, coordinating with vendors, or rallying the team, you're clear, concise, and always professional
- NYC-based and ready to be in-office 3-5 days per week: you are present, in the mix, and available to manage both CEO needs and office operations in real-time
What the job involves
- As Executive Assistant to the CEO, you'll be both a strategic partner and operational backbone to the Office of the CEO.
- You combine executive-level strategic support with meticulous tactical execution, ensuring the CEO can focus on what matters most while you anticipate needs, remove friction, and drive follow-through across the organization
- You'll be a foundational member of the Office of the CEO, responsible for the CEO's time, logistics, and priorities, and ensuring day-to-day execution with speed, clarity, and precision.
- Beyond supporting the CEO, you'll take ownership of office management and culture initiatives that strengthen the Faybie experience
- Own the CEO's calendar like it’s a competitive sport: prioritize what matters, manage complex multi-party scheduling across time zones, and ensure every meeting is strategic, aligned with business priorities, well-prepped, and worth the time
- Act as a true strategic partner and focus the CEO’s attention: serve as the CEO's right hand, exercising sound judgment to determine what requires CEO attention versus what you can handle independently
- Execute flawlessly on the details that matter: coordinate travel (and handle the inevitable last-minute changes), manage inbox and correspondence with discretion, prepare briefing materials, and ensure the CEO walks into every commitment ready to win
- Run the NYC office like you own it: manage vendors, coordinate team lunches, keep supplies stocked, maintain a workspace people actually enjoy being in, and handle the operational details that keep everything humming
- Shape and sustain Fay's culture: design and execute team events, off-sites, culture moments, and Faybie traditions that create connection, celebration, and a thriving team experience
Our take
It is widely accepted that access to holistic nutrition support is a more healthy approach to weight loss than other options. Fay is transforming nutrition counselling by linking individuals with registered dietitians through an insurance-covered platform.
Emerging from stealth in 2024, the company aims to address the widespread need for accessible and high-quality nutritional care in the US. It has an extensive network of dieticians that spans all 50 states, offering tailored nutrition plans to users. For these dieticians, the platform can help them establish their practices, manage insurance claims and match with clients.
With more than 2,300 dieticians on the platform and customers like Amazon, Microsoft, and Pepsi, Fay has made it possible for more than 200M Americans to receive personalized nutrition and lifestyle counseling. But it isn't slowing down anytime soon, as demand grows for weight management and metabolic health solutions, the company recently secured major funding to stay ahead of the curve.
