Weâre hiring an Senior Executive Assistant to the CEO to make Matthieu (Matt) more effective by removing logistics, scheduling, and coordination overhead from their day-to-day.
This is a high-trust role with significant autonomy: you will own Mattâs calendar and travel logistics end-to-end, anticipate needs, and keep key operating rhythms moving.
Compensation: competitive + equity (BSPCE/stock options)
Location: Paris (onsite)
Provide high-level administrative support: anticipate needs, remove friction, and handle day-to-day logistics so Matt can focus on high-leverage work.
Own the calendar end-to-end: manage scheduling, protect focus time, continuously reschedule as priorities/travel change, and keep meetings flowing smoothly.
Run travel and events planning with zero dropped balls: flights, trains, hotels, ground transport, speaking/press/partner, visas, backup options, confirmations, and âday-ofâ execution so surprises are handled before they reach Matt.
Coordinate team and leadership logistics: organize lunches and gatherings when Matt is with teams (e.g., London, NYC visits), and support leadership offsites/seminars when needed.
Support operating cadence (as it fits the role and trust level): help collect topics, build agendas, and keep weekly/recurring exec meetings on track. Capture notes when appropriate.
Handle âalways gets postponedâ tasks: protecting personal constraint when booking professional appointments. Make sure medical and family calendar constraints (nanny/school), and unblock small projects that otherwise linger are still possible.
Be the go-to for admin workflows: document signatures, passport renewals, expenses and requests from legal/finance that require CEO inputs or personal information.
You will have clear ownership and autonomy, with batched questions when youâre blocked and quick yes/no decisions from Matt.
Communication will be lightweight and pragmatic (e.g., Slack/WhatsApp/email), with calls reserved for truly urgent topics.
Inbox support can evolve over time. We can start with forwarding/triage patterns and expand access as trust builds.
You have 5+ years of experience supporting a senior executive in a fast-paced environment, and you can demonstrate strong ownership of calendar and travel.
You are highly proactive: you anticipate issues early (confirmations, documents, time zones, buffers) and build backups.
You have excellent judgment, discretion, and a strong sense of confidentiality, and you handle sensitive information with care.
You have strong stakeholder management skills, and you can navigate priorities across a wide set of internal and external contacts.
You communicate clearly and efficiently (verbal and written), and you are comfortable making decisions in ambiguity.
You are organized and detail-oriented, while staying calm when plans change.
You are comfortable with collaborative AI and office tools (Notion, Google Workspace, Slack) and you keep systems tidy.
You bring problem-solving skills, and a business-oriented mindset.
You are fluent in French and English.
Mattâs travel runs smoothly: no missed bookings, missing confirmations, or last-minute visa/document surprises.
Mattâs calendar becomes a tool for focus: fewer context switches, better buffers, and fewer scheduling back-and-forths.
Team and meeting logistics are consistently handled without escalations.
Recurring rhythms (where applicable) are dependable: agendas, attendees, and logistics are ready ahead of time.
Small but important tasks no longer linger for weeks.
Competitive equity package.
Learning and development budget.
Private health insurance.
Mental health support.
