Executive Assistant Jobs

Some executive assistants want a predictable principal, a clean org chart, and a calendar that behaves. If that is you, this is not your job.

This one is for the EA who has supported a strong personality before and found it better than the alternative. A prominent Dallas single family office is hiring an Executive Assistant to support its principal, run point on his travel and calendar, and supervise a small administrative team. The office covers his interests across investments, philanthropy, the arts, and conservation, so the work goes in a lot of directions at once.

Being straight about the setting. Small office in the Park Cities, on-site, no playbook, priorities that change during the day, and feedback that comes at you directly and in the moment. The person who thrives here finds that energizing. The person who needs process and a predictable week will not last.

What you’ll own

• Travel, and this is the biggest piece of the job. Multi-leg domestic and international trips planned end to end, detailed trip folios, every segment confirmed, and real-time follow-through when something moves mid-trip, including outside business hours.
• The principal’s calendar. Detailed, accurate, and prioritized, with competing demands sorted out before they become conflicts.
• The administrative team. Supervise a small admin staff, set priorities across desks, and make sure nothing falls between people.
• Research ahead of meetings and travel. Background on people, organizations, and destinations, summarized so it is actually useful instead of a pile of links.
• Meeting preparation. Materials, briefing notes, agendas, and follow-ups tracked to closure.
• Event support for board meetings, philanthropic events, and gatherings the office hosts.
• Correspondence drafted and edited on the principal’s behalf, with a diplomatic touch.
• Expense reports and confidential files, handled accurately and quietly.

What we’re looking for

Must-haves:

• Five or more years supporting a senior executive, with real ownership of complex travel and calendar management
• A track record building multi-leg international itineraries and the documentation that goes with them
• Experience supervising or coordinating other administrative staff
• Mac and iCloud proficiency, or the ability to switch quickly. The office runs on both and getting productive fast matters.
• Strong writing and editing. You catch the typo, and you also catch the sentence that will land wrong.
• Discretion with confidential information as a habit, not a rule you follow
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience

Nice to have:

• Family office, foundation, nonprofit, arts organization, personal assistant, or professional services background

What actually predicts success here: you are low ego, no task is too small, you ask before you redesign, and when feedback comes at you directly you pivot instead of taking it personally.

The details

On-site in the Park Cities area of Dallas. Contract to hire, and the office is moving quickly. A background check is required before starting.

Be the person the CFO can't run the day without

This is a high-trust, high-visibility role supporting the CFO of a global, multibillion-dollar company headquartered right here in Fort Worth, Texas. You'll sit at the center of the finance organization, with a front-row view of how a business at real scale actually runs. If you're the kind of person who finds genuine satisfaction in bringing order to a busy executive's world — and quiet pride in being the reason nothing slips — keep reading.

What you'll be doing

• Owning a complex, ever-shifting calendar and protecting the CFO's time like it's the most valuable resource in the building (because it is)

• Coordinating board meetings, audit committee sessions, and investor touchpoints — from scheduling and logistics to pulling materials together so everyone walks in prepared
• Serving as the trusted gatekeeper and first point of contact, deciding what reaches the CFO and what you can handle yourself
• Managing travel end to end, including the inevitable last-minute reroutes, so the only thing the CFO thinks about is the meeting on the other side
• Preparing and polishing presentations, agendas, and reports — clean, accurate, and ready to share
• Handling expenses, approvals, and the steady stream of administrative details that keep the office running smoothly
• Acting as a liaison across the finance team, fellow executives, and external partners, often speaking on the CFO's behalf

You'll thrive here if

• You anticipate rather than react, and you'd rather solve a problem before anyone knows it existed

• Calm is your default setting, even when three things land at once
• You communicate cleanly and warmly with everyone from the front desk to the boardroom
• You're genuinely organized — not “color-coded folders” organized, but the kind that holds up under pressure
• You've supported a senior executive before and know the rhythm of the role

What we're looking for

• Several years of executive support experience, ideally backing a C-level leader

• Comfort operating in a finance, professional services, or similarly fast-paced environment
• Fluency with calendar, travel, and document tools, and the judgment to know which task deserves your attention first
• A track record of handling confidential matters with complete discretion

Let's talk

If this sounds like the right next move, we'd love to hear from you.
