Executive Assistant — Research, Drafting & Operations Support (AI-Augmented) ABOUT THE ROLE I'm a solo founder running a consulting and advisory practice. I work fast, think in systems, and lean heavily on AI tools and a structured knowledge base to get a lot done with a small footprint. I'm looking for a sharp, reliable Executive Assistant who can take real work off my plate — not just calendar management, but research, drafting, document production, and the operational glue that keeps everything moving. This is a long-term, ongoing engagement. I want someone I can build a working relationship with over months and years, who learns how I think and gets more valuable over time. WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO The work falls into four buckets: 1. Knowledge & Project Work (the core of the role) - Research topics and tools, then synthesize findings into clear, decision-ready summaries (comparisons, pros/cons, recommendations). - Draft and format documents: memos, plans, proposals, briefs, internal reference pages, and polished deliverables. - Maintain and organize a knowledge base (Notion and/or Confluence) — creating pages, structuring information, keeping things current and findable. - Prepare materials ahead of meetings and clean up notes and transcripts after. - Comfort with AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, etc.) is a big plus — I use them daily and want a partner who can too. 2. Scheduling & Calendar - Own my calendar: book, reschedule, and protect focus time. - Coordinate meetings across time zones and handle the back-and-forth. - Set reminders and keep me ahead of deadlines and commitments. 3. Staff & Contractor Coordination - Act as a point of contact for contractors and collaborators. - Track tasks, follow up on deliverables, and keep projects on schedule. - Help onboard and coordinate other freelancers as the team grows. 4. Personal Administration - Handle personal scheduling, appointments, and reminders. - Manage occasional errands-by-proxy (research, bookings, purchases, follow-ups). - Help keep the line between work and personal life organized, not blurred. WHO YOU ARE - Excellent written English. You can take a rough idea and turn it into something clear and well-organized without hand-holding. - Strong researcher — resourceful, accurate, and good at knowing when something is "good enough" vs. needs another pass. - Detail-obsessed and dependable. Things don't fall through the cracks with you. - Proactive. You anticipate needs and flag problems early instead of waiting to be told. - Discreet and trustworthy. You'll have access to sensitive business and personal information and will handle it with care. - Comfortable with ambiguity and a fast-moving solo founder who context-switches a lot. TOOLS YOU SHOULD KNOW (or learn quickly) - Notion and/or Confluence - Google Workspace and/or Microsoft 365 (calendar, docs, drive, email) - AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar) - General comfort picking up new software fast NICE TO HAVE - Experience supporting founders, executives, or consultants. - Familiarity with business/operations concepts (you don't need to be an expert, but you shouldn't be lost when I talk strategy or process). - Light project-management or coordination experience. LOGISTICS - Hours: 4-8 hrs/week to start, flexible / scaling - Rate: $20-30/hr - Start: ASAP HOW TO APPLY In your proposal, please: 1. Briefly describe a time you took a messy or open-ended task and turned it into a clean, useful deliverable. 2. Tell me which AI tools you've used and how. 3. Skip the generic template — a short, specific, well-written proposal tells me more than a long one. (Feel free to start your reply with the word "Foundry" so I know you read this.) I read every application personally. Looking forward to finding the right person.

We are an established flooring installation and field service company seeking a highly experienced sales operations and systems leader to help build a structured, accountable, scalable sales organization. This is NOT a sales rep position or a lead generation-only role. We are looking for a senior-level thinker who understands how to architect and implement sales systems that are consistently executed across a growing organization. The company has historically generated business through relationships, responsiveness, reputation, and entrepreneurial hustle. However, many sales and outreach efforts have evolved reactively rather than through intentional structure and process. As a result, sales initiatives often become fragmented, inconsistent, reactive, or dependent on founder involvement rather than operating as a disciplined system. We are seeking someone who can help us design and implement a more organized, measurable, and consistently executed sales operating structure. The Problem We Are Trying to Solve We have: strong ideas, strong reputation, strong capabilities, and multiple sales opportunities, but we lack the systems, accountability, workflows, and management structure required to ensure consistent execution. Too many initiatives: start strong and fade, operate inconsistently, lack accountability, or become reactive firefighting. We want to move from: reactive sales activity to a structured sales operating system. Initial 60-Day Scope The engagement will focus on building and organizing the company’s sales structure, workflows, accountability systems, and outreach architecture. Areas of focus include: GHL (Go High Level) sales workflow setup and optimization CRM structure and pipeline visibility Sales process mapping Lead tracking and accountability systems Executive-level outreach systems Property management outreach workflows Field sales and on-site outreach systems “Pill bottle” field marketing/outreach program structure Follow-up cadence systems Sales KPI and reporting dashboards Sales activity accountability Meeting cadence and management rhythm Email and outreach workflow systems Marketing-to-sales handoff structure Territory/account organization Sales SOPs and documentation Automation opportunities utilizing AI and modern tools Desired Outcomes By the end of the engagement, we want: A clearly defined sales operating system Consistent sales execution processes Improved accountability and visibility Structured follow-up systems Better CRM discipline and pipeline tracking Clear sales KPIs and reporting Reduced founder dependence for execution oversight Stronger executive outreach systems Organized field outreach systems Repeatable and scalable sales workflows Most importantly: We want systems that are consistently executed — not initiatives that start with energy and slowly disappear. AI & Modern Sales Leverage We strongly value candidates who understand how to leverage AI and modern tools to accelerate sales organization, communication, accountability, and workflow execution. We are looking for someone who embraces AI as a force multiplier for: CRM management, workflow automation, outreach sequencing, SOP creation, reporting, dashboard creation, meeting synthesis, sales process organization, and operational visibility. We believe the future belongs to leaders who know how to combine strategic thinking with technology leverage. Ideal Candidate Background Strong candidates may have experience as: Fractional VP of Sales Sales Operations Leader Revenue Operations (RevOps) Consultant Sales Systems Architect CRM Implementation Consultant Business Development Operations Leader Sales Process Consultant Experience in any of the following industries is highly valuable: Flooring Construction Field Services Property Management Multi-location service businesses B2B sales organizations Experience implementing GHL (Go High Level) is strongly preferred.
