• Book and manage domestic and international executive travel in Navan, and provide on-site coordination for customer visits, including logistics and agendas
• Manage the executives’ conference, speaking and industry event commitments, including assessing invitations, handling registration and logistics, and coordinating briefing materials with the relevant internal teams
• Coordinate logistics for all-hands meetings, town halls and other company-wide forums led by the CEO and COO, working with internal owners on timing, format and materials, along with interview logistics for senior candidates meeting with the CEO and COO
• Run the outreach programs for board members, investors, customers and partners by sourcing vendors and meeting international shipping deadlines
• Manage the executive office budget for gifts, events and offsites, process vendor invoices, track spend through the year and keep Ramp expenses and receipts compliant with policy deadlines

• A track record of excelling, a strong work ethic, and the grit and resilience to hold your standard high when the pace gets intense
• A fast, structured thinker and problem solver who learns quickly and follows through on every commitment
• AI-forward, ideally already going beyond basic prompts to use agents and automation, and eager to turn that skill into workflows that change how an executive office runs
• Proficiency with Google Workspace including Docs, Sheets, Slides
• Super organized and detail-oriented, a careful proofreader who catches what others miss and keeps every thread tracked from first request to final follow-up
• A polished, professional communicator in writing and in conversation, with high-level stakeholders and everyone else you work with, who listens closely, takes clear notes and handles confidential information with discretion
• Low ego and high integrity, a self-starter with a strong sense of ownership and a growth mindset, open to feedback and training and ready to take on more responsibility as you grow
