Operations & Project Support
Support and help track cross-functional projects, ensuring milestones, owners, and timelines are clearly defined and visible.
Create and maintain lightweight systems (trackers, dashboards, docs) to keep executives informed on progress and risks.
Partner closely with other EAs and business operations leaders to standardize and improve executive support processes.
Process Improvement & Executive Enablement
Identify opportunities to streamline routines, tools, and workflows so executives can operate more efficiently.
Build and refine playbooks for recurring activities (QBRs, all-hands, staff meetings, planning cycles, travel-heavy weeks).
Uphold and model Drata’s culture and values in every interaction, representing your leaders and the company with professionalism and discretion.
6+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant or similar role supporting C-level leaders, SaaS or technology environment strongly preferred.
