And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

Role Overview We are seeking an elite, highly proactive Senior Executive Assistant to serve as a strategic partner to our C-Staff leadership. In a high-velocity enterprise ($50B+ revenue environment), your core mission is to act as an operational multiplier: architecting the executive’s time, managing complex global logistics, maintaining absolute discretion, and orchestrating seamless collaboration across our global executive administrative network.

You are not just managing a schedule—you are safeguarding executive capacity, predicting friction before it happens, and driving alignment across key internal and external stakeholders.

Core Responsibilities Strategic Calendar Architecture & Executive Time Defense • Calendar Optimization: Design, audit, and aggressively protect the executive’s schedule, aligning daily time allocation directly with core quarterly business objectives, OKRs, and strategic priorities. • Proactive Gatekeeping: Act as the strategic filter for incoming meeting requests, triaging priority, context, and urgency to preserve deep-work focus blocks. • Meeting Preparation: Ensure the executive is 100% prepared for every engagement by sourcing pre-reads, agendas, and briefing materials 24–48 hours in advance.

Executive EA Network & Cross-Functional Collaboration • C-Suite Peer Alignment: Work in tight lockstep with peer EAs across the C-Staff to seamlessly coordinate cross-functional leadership meetings, All-Hands, and Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs). • High-Trust Communication: Serve as a trusted, highly professional liaison between the executive, direct reports, board members, key enterprise customers, and external partners. • Action-Item Accountability: Attend key operational meetings when required to track decisions, summarize action items, and drive follow-through across senior team members.

Complex Global Travel & Logistics • Multi-Leg Itinerary Management: End-to-end planning of complex international and domestic travel, including visa/passport logistics, global entry protocols, multi-time-zone synchronization, and ground transport. • Real-Time Agility: Monitor global travel disruptions proactively, providing 24/7 contingency solutions and rapid itinerary adjustments on the fly.

High-Stakes Discretion & Project Leadership • Confidentiality: Handle ultra-sensitive corporate communications, personnel matters, organizational restructures, and strategic business initiatives with absolute discretion and integrity. • Executive Event Ownership: Lead end-to-end planning for executive leadership retreats, customer advisory boards, offsites, and key networking events. • Adaptive On-Site Support: Maintain an active physical presence in the office (3+ days per week), scaling up in-person coverage to match critical C-staff meetings, board visits, quarterly business reviews, or executive offsites as needed.

Minimum Requirements • In-Office Presence: Must be located in a designated hub and willing to work in-office a minimum of 3 days per week, with flexibility for additional on-site days as dictated by executive schedule, C-staff events, or operational needs. • Experience: 10+ years of administrative experience, with at least 5+ years directly supporting C-Suite, EVP, or C-1 Executives within an enterprise tech or Fortune 100 company ($10B+ revenue scale). • Proven EA Team Collaboration: Demonstrated track record of collaborating effectively within a matrixed network of high-performing executive assistants supporting C-staff. • Expert Calendar Strategy: Master-level ability to manage hyper-dense, rapidly changing, multi-time-zone calendars. • Global Travel Expertise: Deep expertise in planning complex international travel itineraries and navigating international travel protocols. • Technical Proficiency: Mastery of Google Workspace (Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Drive), Slack, Zoom/Webex, and enterprise tools (Salesforce, Quip, Tableau preferred). • Discretion: Impeccable judgment and a proven track record handling strictly confidential data and executive interactions.

Key Traits of the Top 10% Candidate • Strategic Foresight: You anticipate needs three steps ahead and prepare solutions before problems reach the executive’s desk. • High Emotional Intelligence (EQ): Exceptional diplomatic skills to navigate complex team dynamics, build trust quickly, and represent the executive with elegance. • Unshakable Composure: Thrives under pressure in high-growth, fast-paced environments where priorities pivot rapidly.
