As an early member of our world class Administrative Business Partner team, you’ll have a key role in rebuilding our country’s most important and most broken industry from first principles. As an Administrative Business Partner, you’ll handle a wide range of administrative support tasks, while juggling diverse responsibilities. We’re looking for someone who enjoys streamlining hectic days, who can jump into the chaos, and thrive in a constantly changing environment. We value someone who is a self-starter, incredibly organized, extremely flexible, who can maintain great external and internal relationships, and is an overall strong communicator.
You Will:
- Directly support 1-2 of our leaders
- Manage highly complex calendars and scheduling via Google Suite
- Plan and coordinate external meetings, which may include cross functional teams, stakeholders, and outside vendors
- Maintain an efficient flow of information between all levels
- Ensure managers are prepared for meetings, and have all necessary supplies or tools
- Receive and direct external visitors
- Assist in document management, compilation, distribution and storage
- Compile receipts to file expense reports and track reimbursement status
- Coordinate travel arrangements and accommodations

You Are:
- Impact-Driven - You’re deeply mission-driven, and you think there’s more to life than software that enables puppy ears to be superimposed in photos. (Although we concede those are cute.)
- Detail-Oriented - You have exceptional organizational skills and enjoy diving into operational processes.
- Scrappy - You’re a hustler who will get your hands dirty and protect your builders at every turn.
- A leader - You’re kind, collaborative and humble. Teams want to be in the trenches with you, and to build something great by your side.
- Entrepreneurial - You’re a self-starter who loves to own things end-to-end. You don’t ask for permission - you’re too busy making things happen.
Minimum Qualifications:
- BA / BS degree
- Excellent computer literacy, and experience with Google Suite (or ability to learn quickly)
- Highly organized, and able to efficiently prioritize a large workload of tasks
- Strong communication skills, and ability to interact with internal and external partners
- Ability to work in an ambiguous, rapidly changing environment
- Self-motivated, and works well under pressure
