About the Company

We are a growing portfolio of U.S.-based companies across the health, fitness, and wellness industries. The portfolio includes multi-location fitness businesses in multiple U.S. markets — including one expanding from four to six locations — alongside specialized wellness businesses.

The founder leads each business hands-on and invests deeply in his people; several key team members have been with him for eight-plus years. This is a high-trust, high-standards environment built on ownership, initiative, accountability, and genuine care for the work.

About the Role

This is a newly created role: the founder's first fully integrated professional-and-personal right hand. This is more than a traditional Executive Assistant position. It combines executive and personal support with project coordination, cross-functional execution, and AI-enabled systems building.

Running several companies at once, the founder needs one trusted person who can reduce the day-to-day noise, organize priorities, coordinate across his businesses and personal life, and take delegated outcomes through to the finish line.

You will work closely with the founder's existing executives, partners, employees, advisors, vendors, and other resources. Your job is not to personally do everything. It is to understand the desired outcome, determine who and what is needed, coordinate execution, follow up, remove bottlenecks, and close the loop without requiring the founder to remain in the middle.

The goal is not to add another person to manage. It is to create leverage and build structure that progressively reduces how much the founder has to manage.

Key Responsibilities

Executive Support & Prioritization
* Own the founder's inbox and calendar, protecting his time and keeping him ahead of what matters
* Turn a busy, multi-business week into clear priorities, with decisions, deadlines, and red-flag items surfaced first
* Prepare meeting briefs, capture action items, track commitments, and ensure follow-through
* Organize information so the founder can make decisions quickly without having to find the information himself

Cross-Functional Execution
* Coordinate across multiple businesses and serve as a trusted liaison to executives, partners, employees, advisors, vendors, and other key personnel
* Learn who owns what across the founder's existing ecosystem and activate the right people and resources to accomplish objectives
* Turn delegated outcomes into clear owners, next steps, deadlines, and follow-up
* Identify stalled initiatives, missing information, and bottlenecks, and drive them toward resolution
* Escalate to the founder when his input is genuinely required — not simply because the next step is unclear
* Own the loop until the desired outcome is completed

Personal & Life Management
* Coordinate personal appointments, travel, transportation, reservations, and logistics
* Manage personal administration, household/property matters, bills, documents, vendors, research, and remote errands
* Coordinate with local or in-person resources when something cannot be completed remotely
* Bring the same organization, discretion, and follow-through to the founder's personal life as you do to his businesses

AI, Automation & Systems

AI capability is a core expectation of this role, not a bonus.
* Identify and build AI-enabled workflows and automations that reduce manual work and executive involvement
* Use AI for research, communication, meeting preparation, reporting, project management, documentation, and decision support
* Help build and maintain the founder's AI operating system — including reusable prompts, frameworks, custom GPTs/agents, knowledge bases, SOPs, automations, and workflows
* Capture the founder's recurring processes, communication preferences, and decision frameworks so they become increasingly repeatable and scalable
* Document systems so they are durable, transferable, and maintained within founder/company-controlled accounts wherever possible
* Continually ask: Can this be automated, delegated, templated, systemized, or eliminated?
Knowing how to use ChatGPT or Claude is not enough. We are looking for someone who understands how to combine AI + automation + systems + people to create real leverage.

Required Qualifications
* 3+ years supporting a founder, CEO, entrepreneur, or senior executive as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, Executive Business Partner, or Chief-of-Staff-style right hand
* Near-native written and verbal English with clear, professional, confident communication
* Demonstrated AI and automation fluency beyond basic prompting; be prepared to walk through systems or workflows you have actually built
* Strong proje
