Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest. Executive Assistant to the Founder & CEO Affirm is reinventing credit to make it more honest and friendly, giving consumers the flexibility to buy now and pay later without any hidden fees or compounding interest. Our mission is to improve lives through honest financial products. We are seeking a confident, resourceful, and proactive Executive Assistant to provide comprehensive, high-touch support to our Founder & CEO. This individual will serve as an invaluable and integral member of the Office of the CEO. In line with our value of "Simpler is Better," this role is about creating efficiency and clarity for our CEO, seamlessly managing an intense and ever-evolving calendar, stakeholder relationships, and global commitments. This high-trust partnership is crucial to enabling our CEO to leverage their time in the most efficient way possible. What You’ll Do Comprehensive CEO Support: Provide meticulous, high-touch support across all facets of the CEO's life, anticipating needs and proactively managing their schedule and commitments. This role requires a dedicated presence in our San Francisco office on a weekly basis when the CEO is present. Candidates must live within reasonable distance to Affirm's San Francisco office, such that regular commuting is manageable for this position. The role also requires travel, up to 15% nationally and on occasion, internationally, with the expectation of 24/7 availability during travel periods to respond to urgent needs. Calendar & Logistics Mastery: Manage an extremely active and dynamic calendar with precision and tact, prioritizing conflicts, and optimizing time allocation for both business and personal engagements. This includes coordinating complex international and domestic travel. Information Management & Preparation: Streamline high-volume communications across all channels and prepare comprehensive briefing documents, agendas, and relevant materials ahead of meetings to ensure the CEO is fully equipped. Strategic Relationship Management: Liaise with members of the CEO’s personal and professional network, and partner with internal departments to streamline workflows. Operational Partnership: Work closely with the Chief of Staff to jointly manage the CEO’s inbound and outbound requests and assist with special projects, press appearances, and speaking engagements. Serve as a thought partner to the Chief of Staff and coordinate with other executive assistants to ensure operational alignment across the C-suite. Financial Administration: Process expense reports, approvals, document sign-offs, and travel reimbursements. Meeting Facilitation: Attend executive team meetings where required. Ensure all meeting spaces (in-person or virtual) are prepped for optimal performance. What We Look For The ideal candidate is a proactive and detail-obsessed individual who understands the unique demands of supporting a visionary leader across all aspects of their life, while always operating with unwavering discretion, impeccable judgment, and humility. Proven Executive Support: 10+ years of experience supporting C-suite executives, with 5+ years supporting a Founder/CEO (public company experience strongly preferred). Prioritization skills and calmness under pressure are essential in a hyper-growth environment. Personal Assistant Acumen: Demonstrated experience in a role that deeply integrated with an executive's personal life, balancing personal and business needs with seamless support. Exceptional Communication & Executive Presence: Superior communication skills, able to convey complex ideas clearly and concisely, while engaging confidentiality and respectfully with senior executives, high-profile stakeholders, or other influential leaders. Adaptability & Resilience: Comfortable working in ambiguity and rapidly shifting priorities. Calm under pressure and able to respond to urgent needs outside of traditional hours. Tech Savvy: Highly tech-savvy and a quick learner, with a working knowledge of G Suite, Slack, Zoom, expense management tools, as well as confidence with leveraging AI. Industry Experience: Previous experience supporting a high-profile, public-facing executive in a relevant industry such as tech, media, finance, or venture-backed startups.
