• Comfortable working directly with founders and senior external stakeholders.
• Proficiency in PowerPoint, Excel or Google Workspace and other productivity tools.
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving startup where responsibilities may change frequently.
• Willing to assist with both strategic projects and routine operational tasks.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working in a startup, technology company, consulting firm or founder’s office.
• Background in business, communications, architecture, urban planning, real estate or a related discipline.
• Experience supporting enterprise or government clients.
• Experience preparing professional presentations and business proposals.
• Familiarity with CRM, Notion, Canva, project-management tools or AI productivity tools.
