• Proactive Problem-Solving: Conduct research or leverage AI tools to tackle challenges, delivering solutions that save time and fuel progress.

• Data-Driven Updates: Learn to extract and analyze key company metrics, track milestones on major initiatives, and facilitate CEO input to sustain momentum.
• Actionable Follow-Ups: Manage follow-ups with internal teams and external partners on the CEO’s behalf, ensuring alignment and accountability.
• Habit Reinforcement: Support the CEO in building and sustaining high-impact habits using a custom framework, fostering discipline and growth.

• Strong research and problem-solving skills, with comfort using AI tools to streamline tasks.
• Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets and task management platforms, with an ability to analyze data and present insights.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication for crafting briefs, updates, and professional correspondence.
• A proactive, high-energy mindset, with a passion for driving impact and embracing challenges.

Preferred Skills:
