Overview

Mr. Kelly’s unique abilities and primary responsibilities are vision, strategy, and content. The role of his Executive Assistant is to support him as needed in the fulfillment of his responsibilities. The goal of the EA is to maximize the amount of time Mr. Kelly spends doing those things that only he can do, and minimize the amount of time he spends doing things that other capable people can successfully complete.    This person must maintain an exceptional level of professionalism and confidentiality and understand the many roles that Mr. Kelly has across his various organizations and beyond. Responsibilities will include a broad variety of tasks; from assisting Mr. Kelly with special projects, to running errands, and everything in between.

The Executive Assistant position is a unique and integral part of a small committed team. A “whatever it takes” mentality combined with a “no task is too big or too small” attitude is required to succeed in this role. The position consists of a 5-day in-office schedule, Monday-Friday, with occasional availability outside of regular business hours for urgent or emergency situations requiring immediate attention.
