Ostium is on a simple mission: make it possible for anyone with a digital wallet to trade stocks, commodities, currencies, and crypto with full transparency. No brokers, no freezes, no hidden spreads. We’re replacing the opaque, offshore brokerage model with a transparent, permissionless trading stack built onchain. Every trade, deposit, and withdrawal is verifiable through open, auditable code. We’ve raised $27.9M+ from General Catalyst, Jump, LocalGlobe, Susquehanna (SIG), GSR, Alliance DAO, Soma Capital, Balaji Srinivasan, Meltem Demirors, and others.
We are looking for an experienced and highly resourceful Executive Assistant & Office Manager to support the executive team. This is a high-trust, high-visibility role at the center of the company — you will be the person the executive team relies on to protect their time, maintain their focus, and ensure the office runs flawlessly.
The right candidate has supported C-suite executives or senior management in a fast-paced, high-standards environment and brings the judgment, discretion, and proactive instincts to operate with minimal oversight. In addition to supporting the executives directly, this person will work closely with Ostium's Operations team.
