Personal Executive Assistant

Job Description

Job Description

CSC Generation is an AI-native holding company re-engineering omni-channel retail. We acquire iconic brands and transform them with Genesis—our operating platform combining a data fabric, automation engine, proprietary tools, and shared services—to modernize operations, elevate customer experience, and expand margins.

With more than $1B in revenue across 13 brands, our portfolio includes Sur La Table, Backcountry, One Kings Lane, and others that serve as real-world innovation labs.

We’re hiring a  Personal Executive Assistant  to support our CEO.

This is  not a traditional EA role  focused only on gatekeeping and travel booking. It’s a high-leverage, systems-driven role for someone who loves using technology (especially AI / automations) to keep a complex life and calendar running smoothly—often beyond standard business hours.

You must be detail oriented, quick, available, adaptable and comfortable with constant change in a fast-paced environment.

This is a contract position at $34 / hour, starting at ~20 hours / week during a probationary period, with the potential to convert to full-time (40–50 hours / week) if there is mutual fit.

LinkedIn profile must be on resume or application to be considered.

Please read job description closely before applying & only apply if you believe you're a good fit for this role.

What You'll Do :

• Own a very dynamic calendar. Manage a heavy volume of meetings across time zones. Book, rebook and cancel meetings as priorities change. Communicate changes.
• Run the CEO’s day like a control tower.  Send / schedule daily schedules and reminders before each block of meetings, including “prep now,” “join in 5 minutes,” and “leave now” nudges.
• Time management for in-person meetings (max ~3 per week).  Track traffic and transit time so that reminders reflect when to leave, not just when a meeting starts. Adjust alerts if conditions change and build simple automations so this process gets smarter over time.
• Travel & flight management. Track flights, typical security wait times, and airport busyness using available tools. Recommend when to leave, how much buffer to add, and proactively flag risks (weather, delays, tight connections). Occasionally change flight or seat.
• Use AI and automation to increase leverage. Apply tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and others to draft communications, summarize information, create checklists, and streamline scheduling workflows. Set up and maintain simple automations (rules, zaps, shortcuts, scripts, etc.) that reduce repetitive work and help the CEO stay on track.
• Keep communication and follow-through tight. Track decisions, follow-ups, and priories in a shared note with CEO. Nudge the right people at the right time to keep things moving.
