About the Role
We’re hiring an Executive Assistant to support the Founder & Creative Director of a celebrity haircare and accessories brand. This is a unique opportunity to work behind the scenes with high-profile clientele and one of the most respected creative leaders in the beauty and entertainment world.

Liaise with celebrity clients, stylists, studios, and vendors to coordinate consultations, fittings, and on-set support, ensuring every detail is delivered flawlessly
Support operational tasks including billing, Airtable/Notion updates, vendor management, and onboarding/offboarding of partners
Prioritize urgent vs. non-urgent communications, ensure follow-ups are actioned, and safeguard against inflated timelines or costs
Provide both professional and personal support to enable the Founder to focus on creative and strategic priorities
What We’re Looking For
3–5+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or Operations Coordinator
Proven track record supporting senior executives, founders, or high-profile/celebrity clients
Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a polished, professional style
High proficiency in Google Workspace, Airtable, Slack, and project management tools
Comfortable managing cross-time-zone schedules and global workflows
Strong interpersonal skills for high-touch client and partner liaison
Proactive problem-solver who anticipates needs and ensures follow-through
Preferred: background in creative industries (fashion, beauty, film, luxury, or entertainment)
What’s In It for You
Competitive compensation
Exposure to celebrity clients and luxury industry projects
Opportunity to operate at the intersection of beauty, entertainment, and creative industries
Flexible remote environment with global exposure
Birthday leave + professional development budget
Be part of a team that values precision, trust, and creative excellence
