JOB OVERVIEW

This is not a data entry job, and it is not a "follow the checklist" job. If you want clear, repetitive instructions every day, please do not apply — you will be unhappy here and so will I.

I am looking for one person who becomes the operational center of everything I do. You will not be handed a perfect system. Part of your job is to build the system, notice what is broken, and tell me about it.

The person I want is organized, curious, and thinks like a strategist. When I give you a goal, I want you to come back with how you would approach it — not wait for me to explain each step.

Who I am:

My name is Benji Block. I live in Texas, USA. I'm managing 3 ventures and lead a community:

Signature Series Media — a video production company focused on producing video podcasts and thought leadership content.
City Social — CEO of a social media and communications agency for local government.
Undercurrents — my personal platform: writing, video, podcasting, keynote speaking, and coaching practice. This is in it's early stages, and needs help to come to maturity.
GoBundance -- I run the Texas region of a community for entrepreneurs, I help with events and onboarding.
I am a husband and a dad (second child arriving this fall).

All of these are real jobs, and right now all of them route through me. That is the problem you are being hired to help solve.

What you would actually do:

You will not do all of this on day one. We will add areas as you get your footing.

1. Own my calendar and my priorities. Protect my top priorities, help me schedule the most important stuff. Beyond scheduling, you will track my quarterly goals and weekly priorities, and every Friday you will put a document in front of me showing what I committed to, what moved, and what has been sitting untouched.

2. Book me on podcasts and manage my speaking pipeline Research shows that fit my topics. Write personalized pitches (I will give you a template and approve everything). Track outreach, follow up, book, and prep me with everything I need before I go on. Same for keynote and speaking inquiries.

3. Support my coaching practice and the media around it Schedule client sessions, manage follow-up sequences, keep session notes organized, and help me turn my writing and coaching ideas into published content — formatting my Substack posts, coordinating podcast episodes and show notes, repurposing one idea into several pieces.

4. Keep Signature Series projects moving Right now client work comes at me through Slack and I manually push it to my team. You will learn that flow, document it, and then run it — intake, assignments, deadlines, chasing status, and checking deliverables before they go to a client. You will also eventually handle invoicing and following up on unpaid invoices.

5. Run City Social's content operations Build and maintain the content calendar and marketing funnel. Schedule and publish. Organize assets. Submit RFPS. Pull the monthly performance reports.

6. Handle personal logistics Travel, reservations, appointments, gift buying, event planning, research. This role sits close to my personal life.

What I need from you:

You figure things out. If you do not know how to do something, your first move is to research it, try it, and then ask me a specific question — not a general one.

You tell me when I am wrong. I need you to push back, flag a bad idea, and say "I do not understand" out loud. Agreeing with me when you are actually confused is the fastest way for this to fail. I will never be upset with you for disagreeing. I will be frustrated if you stay quiet.

You write & speak clearly in English.

You are organized by nature. You like clean systems and you notice when things are out of place.

You are proactive. You would rather come to me with a proposed solution than a question.

Experience I am looking for:

2+ years supporting a business owner, executive, or agency
Comfortable with project management tools
Comfortable with Slack and Google Workspace
Social media scheduling tools and basic analytics
Canva or similar for light asset work
Bonus: experience with video production workflows, email marketing platforms, or podcast outreach and production

In your response to this job posting, please answer the following question:
If I told you my next quarter's biggest goal was to be booked on 12 podcasts, what would you do in your first week?
