Executive Assistant

Hover is looking for a strategic, proactive Executive Assistant who can amplify the impact of our VP of Business Operations & Growth and help the organization operate with greater clarity, speed, and focus. You're someone who anticipates needs before they surface, thrives in fast-moving environments, and brings structure to ambiguity.  You understand what excellent executive partnership looks like and can help shape the standard for how EAs operate and add value across Hover. Most importantly, you care deeply about the people and teams you support, building trust quickly and serving as a highly reliable, steady presence throughout the organization.

You'll be a force-multiplier for the VP of Business Operations & Growth, optimizing time, driving alignment, and ensuring the most important work moves forward without friction. You'll own the operating rhythms that keep the team organized, from strategic calendaring and meeting prep to cross-functional coordination and follow-through. You'll synthesize information across channels, ensure stakeholders are aligned, and proactively resolve issues before they escalate. And as part of a collaborative, low-ego EA cohort, you'll help define and elevate EA standards across Hover while strengthening connection between teams.

Key contributions include:

• Managing and optimizing complex calendars, priorities, and travel.
• Preparing briefs, agendas, and follow-ups that drive clarity and action.
• Coordinating cross-functional initiatives, planning cadences, and events.
• Planning and coordinating in-person team onsites and workshops for both small and large groups.
• Improving workflows, tools, and systems to streamline how the org operates.
• Partnering with the EA team to share best practices and provide coverage as needed.

• 5+ years supporting senior executives in fast-paced, high-growth technology environments.
• Strength in anticipating needs, solving problems proactively, and exercising sound judgment.
• High proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, and modern productivity tools.
• Clear, concise communication and the ability to synthesize information across teams.
• Strong organization and prioritization skills, especially when navigating shifting deadlines.
• Collaborative, low-ego working style with high EQ — and a steady sense of humor.

• Compensation - Competitive salary and meaningful equity in a fast-growing company
• Healthcare - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and dependents
• Paid Time Off - Unlimited and flexible vacation policy 
• Paid Family Leave - We support work/life balance and offer generous paid parental and new child bonding leave 
• Mandatory Self-Care Days - A day set aside each month to allow employees to recharge 
• Remote Wellbeing Resources - We provide recurring fitness classes, meditation/ mindfulness tools, virtual therapy, and family planning assistance 
• Learning - We encourage continued education and will help cover the cost of management training, conferences, workshops, or certifications
