About the role

Flex is seeking a proactive, detail-oriented Executive Administrator to join our growing executive support function and directly support a pod of senior leaders. This role sits at the center of how Flex's executive team operates - protecting time, enabling focus, and ensuring the coordination that powers our leadership runs smoothly and intentionally. As Flex scales rapidly, this is not a traditional administrative role. Executive Administrators at Flex are expected to be genuine partners to the leaders they support - understanding priorities, exercising judgment, and operating as part of a coordinated team rather than optimizing in isolation. You'll work closely with the Manager, Executive Administration and peer EAs to ensure cross-executive scheduling reflects org-wide priorities, not just individual availability. This is a hybrid position with minimum on-site expectations of 3 days per week in our New York Headquarters. For candidates outside of the NY/NJ area, you may be eligible for our relocation assistance program.

Responsibilities

  • Calendar Management & Prioritization
  • Own end-to-end calendar management for a pod of 2-3 senior executives, including scheduling, rescheduling, and proactive prioritization
  • Manage competing demands with judgment - pushing back, protecting focus time, and escalating tradeoffs when appropriate
  • Coordinate cross-executive scheduling in partnership with peer EAs, with an org-wide lens on how time is being used
  • Maintain meeting hygiene standards: appropriate durations, clear agendas, and timely prep materials
  • Travel & Logistics
  • Book and manage business travel for supported executives, including flights, hotels, ground transportation, and itineraries
  • Anticipate logistics needs and proactively solve for complications before they become problems
  • Support coordination of leadership offsites, board meetings, and all-hands logistics as needed
  • Meeting Preparation & Follow-Through
  • Prepare briefing materials, agendas, and context documents ahead of key meetings
  • Leverage AI transcription and action-tracking tools to capture outputs and ensure follow-through from executive meetings
  • Help executives stay on top of commitments and action items that emerge from high-priority meetings
  • AI-Assisted Workflows
  • Use AI scheduling and productivity tools as a core part of your workflow - for calendar analysis, meeting prep, transcription, and logistics research
  • Contribute to the team's evolving AI tooling practices by sharing what's working and helping refine approaches over time
  • Team Coordination & Operations
  • Participate in weekly EA team alignment and contribute to a coordinated, high-trust team dynamic
  • Partner with the Manager, Executive Administration to flag coordination issues, capacity concerns, or process gaps
  • Contribute to playbooks and documentation that help the function scale consistently
  • Key qualifications
  • 3+ years of experience in executive administration, executive support, or a similar role in a fast-paced environment
  • Experience directly supporting senior or C-suite executives with complex, high-volume calendars
  • Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail - you follow through, every time
  • Sound judgment and discretion; able to handle sensitive information and navigate ambiguous situations with maturity
  • Comfortable using AI tools in your day-to-day work, with a genuine interest in how they can create leverage (scheduling assistants, transcription tools, meeting prep, etc.)
  • Collaborative team player who understands that great executive support is a team sport, not a solo act
  • Clear, professional communicator - written and verbal - who can represent executives with confidence
  • Thrives in a dynamic, high-growth environment where priorities shift and speed matters

Additional Information

Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing.
