About Founders & Funders
Founders & Funders connects founders, venture capitalists, investors, and leading business partners through curated events and relationship-building programs across the United States. We also operate F&F Ventures, our investment arm focused on consumer and direct-to-consumer companies. We are looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to support our Founder across both Founders & Funders and F&F Ventures.
About the Role
This is not a traditional scheduling role. We are looking for an anticipatory operator who takes work off the Founder’s plate before it has to be assigned, creates systems around recurring responsibilities, and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks. The purpose of this role is simple: **buy back the Founder’s time so he can focus on the work only he can do.**
The right person will manage his time, communication, follow-through, meeting preparation, and day-to-day coordination while helping create better systems across the organization.

They bring solutions, close loops, protect priorities, and have the confidence to keep the Founder on track when needed.
