This is a career-defining opportunity to take on a senior role within the existing Assistant team supporting the Co-Founder and CEO of Google DeepMind.
As a seasoned strategic partner, you will thrive in high-velocity environments and possess the sophistication to navigate complex organisational structures with ease.
Key responsibilities:
- Manage a complex, high-volume, and ever-changing calendar, assessing the strategic weight of every meeting and proactively shielding the CEO’s focus.
- Execute intricate international travel arrangements, often with short notice, and anticipate logistical challenges.
- Act as a strategic guardian and ambassador for the CEO, cultivating trusted relationships with a global network of stakeholders.
- Serve as a critical extension of the CEO, expertly prioritising emails, delegating action items, and ensuring he is briefed and prepared for every interaction.
- Exercise autonomous judgment to validate calculated risks that drive momentum, while acting as a decisive guardrail to prevent unnecessary risks.
- Drive critical projects from conception to completion in a highly ambiguous and fast-moving environment.
About You:
- You have a significant and demonstrable track record supporting a world-renowned Founder, CEO, or equivalent principal in a high-intensity, global environment.
- You are able to seamlessly reprioritise with calm and composure and approach sudden schedule changes as a logistical puzzle to be solved, not a disruption.
- You are a strategic force multiplier who sees the patterns others miss, consistently staying two steps ahead.
- You bring a ‘whatever it takes’ attitude and seamlessly toggle between driving high-level initiatives and the more granular administrative minutiae with equal precision and dedication.
- You recognise that elite support is not a 9-to-5 endeavour and possess the flexibility to align with the CEO’s schedule, including evening and weekend coverage as required.
- You are a driver of operational excellence, with impeccable judgement and ironclad discretion.
- You thrive in ambiguity and bring order to chaos, operating with a low ego and high integrity.
- You’re able to operate in lockstep with the wider administrative team and the Private Office to create a seamless bridge between professional commitments and personal logistics.
- You are results-driven and action-oriented, able to work at pace with accuracy and take initiative to deliver exceptional outcomes.
- You are a master of your craft, with deep expertise in managing complex calendaring, global travel, and the G-Suite of tools.
- You have a genuine and deep interest in the mission of Google DeepMind and the use of AI tools to further enhance your impact.
