Executive Assistant / Project Coordinator
$40- $45/ Hour
Contract, Part-Time
About the company
We're working with a boutique, female-founded and female-led leadership coaching and consulting firm. We partner with senior leaders and executive teams through 1:1 coaching, group programs, and workshops, and we're a close-knit, mostly remote team that supports each other.
Role overview
We're hiring a Program & Executive Coordinator to run the day-to-day administration of our client engagements and support our CEO directly. This is a hands-on execution role: scheduling, coordination, assessment platform administration, recurring reporting, and producing accurate, client-ready materials on time.
You'll report to the CEO/Founder, managing her calendar, client communication, and the administration of her 1:1 coaching engagements. You'll also work daily with our Operations Manager to execute group programs and client-facing materials, and give light administrative support to our consultants and coaches.
Key responsibilities
Executive support to the CEO
Manage a complex calendar and resolve conflicts the same business day
Coordinate logistics for virtual and in-person client sessions, confirmed with all attendees at least three business days ahead
Run your weekly 1:1 with the CEO, with a ClickUp agenda ready a day early covering open tasks, overdue items, and decisions needed
Prepare agendas and materials ahead of the CEO's upcoming client meetings
1:1 coaching engagement coordination
Act as scheduler and day-to-day contact for the CEO's coaching clients
Track engagements in ClickUp, marking tasks complete the same day the work goes out
Run client assessments, debriefs, and session workflows to the documented process
Flag any engagement that slips its timeline within 1–2 business days
Group programs and workshops
Serve as day-to-day contact for program sponsors, copying the Operations Manager
Execute assigned program tasks in ClickUp to the dates set in each SOW
Assessment platform administration
Gallup: order, distribute, track completion, follow up with non-responders, and deliver results on schedule
EchoSpan: set up projects, manage raters, send reminders, and generate reports
Recurring operations
Send reports, invoicing inputs, and hours reports on the 1st, 15th, and 30th
File travel and expense documentation within five business days
Name and file client documents to company conventions
Content production (as requested)
Build decks, reports, and coaching materials in PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Canva using existing brand templates
Submit polished first drafts (complete, proofread, on-template) to the Operations Manager within three business days of the brief
How we work
ClickUp is our system of record, Google Docs holds our documents, and Slack is our internal channel; most clients use Microsoft 365 and Teams
We use Claude and ChatGPT, but everything gets careful human review and editing before it reaches a client
Meeting owners come with an agenda and a proposed solution, not just the problem
We set weekly client deadlines and flag missed ones immediately
Qualifications
3–5+ years in executive support, engagement coordination, or program administration, ideally in professional services
Fluency in a project management platform; ClickUp strongly preferred
Strong production skills in PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Canva, working accurately within existing templates
Clear writer in your own voice; comfortable using AI tools as a drafting aid and editing the output with good judgment
Polished, professional presence with senior client contacts
Owns mistakes proactively and brings solutions when flagging problems
Familiarity with Microsoft 365 and Teams
San Diego-based with availability for occasional in-person workdays preferred; fully remote candidates considered if available during Pacific business hours
Nice to have: experience with Gallup and/or EchoSpan. We'll train the right candidate.
Why you'll love it
You take pride in bringing your A-game and becoming indispensable
You have a sharp eye for detail and nuance, and stay organized across many projects at once
You're proactive and self-led, and don't need close supervision to prioritize your work
You're a problem-solver who picks up new tools quickly
You want to work in a supportive, female-founded and female-led business

What this role doesn't include
To be clear about scope, this role does not cover sales or new business (proposals, pricing, MSAs, SOWs), ClickUp configuration or program timelines, project management of group programs, supervising consultants or coaches, or coaching and consulting delivery. It is a coordination and operations role, not a track into coaching.
