• Helping organize company retreats, quarterly gatherings, board meetings and ad hoc team events.

• At least 5 years of work experience in a similar role.

• Strong time management, administrative, and organizational skills.
• Direct experience with using AI to streamline processes as well as high commitment and aptitude to develop in this domain.

• Minimum of BA or BS degree.
• Previous experience in consulting, startups, creative industries, design studios is a plus.
• Motivation to interact with people on a daily basis to achieve shared goals.
