Executive Assistant to Support High-Functioning CEO (Remote)
REMOTE
United States
Management
Full time
Description
Paradigm Life believes in a better financial system. One that makes life more predictable. We help clients create customized financial solutions proven to reduce risk, increase growth, minimize taxes, and put clients in the driver’s seat of their wealth – not Wall Street.
We are looking for an Executive Assistant who knows how to compliment a CEO who hasn’t worked with an assistant in two years. Our CEO knows of the benefits of having a great Executive Assistant, yet he’s never experienced what it’s like to work with an Executive Assistant who anticipates his needs, makes his life easier, and knows how to oversee functions to keep a pulse on the operations so he doesn’t have to.
The Executive Assistant will report to the President of the Company and will support both the CEO and President; with a majority of the time spent with the CEO. When the CEO is kept out of operations, yet still has a pulse on each team and scoreboard and can spend his time being creative within the company, you will know you are successful. You should have a go-getter attitude, experience in an Executive Assistant position, and possess a versatile skillset to ensure the company’s workflow runs smoothly. It’s imperative this candidate be proactive, open to new challenges, meet deadlines, communicate effectively, and serve as a great team player.

Benefits
It has taken two years, but the Company culture is in a word – AWESOME! For instance, it’s remote and the hours are based on your location, not the company’s (although there should naturally be some overlap). Everyone on the team is committed to having fun, being client centric, excited about their work, genuinely optimistic, and seeks opportunity.
Our mission first began in 2007 but was fortified during the 2008-2009 Great Recession when we discovered first-hand the value of our principles and strategies. The failure of traditional financial planning methodology was exposed in more ways than one. This discovery was the result of meeting and subsequently helping thousands of iniduals and businesses learn about sound wealth strategies and how to ensure that such an occurrence didn’t happen again. The Company is a fully developed virtual business which allows our team the opportunity to connect with clients in all 50 states, Canada and US Territories.
If you have a calling to make a difference in people’s lives, this is an exciting opportunity for you. Join and contribute to an innovative team and help us carry out the mission of the Company – to come alongside clients and implement a personalized wealth strategy that empowers them to live a fulfilling life now and ensure the future of their dreams.
