Job Description

Executive Assistant

Are you the kind of person who thrives in movement, momentum, and meaningful impact? Do you love bringing order, clarity, and confidence to leaders so they can operate at their absolute best? If you are energized by fast-paced environments, love staying five steps ahead, and naturally bring calm to complexity, this Executive Assistant role may be the perfect next step in your career.

About Avalo

Avalo is transforming sustainable agriculture through rapid, technology-driven crop development. Our work accelerates gene discovery and advanced breeding to shape the future of global food systems. You will be supporting a visionary CEO leading bold innovation — and your work will directly help move world-changing ideas forward.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you will become the CEO’s strategic right hand — the person who ensures priorities stay on track, communication remains seamless, and logistics run smoothly. Each day will bring variety, challenge, and opportunities to contribute to high-impact initiatives.

You will:

• Fully own calendar and schedule prioritization
• Manage complex global travel logistics
• Support executive communication and email flow
• Prepare meetings, materials, and follow-ups
• Anticipate needs before they arise
• Build structure, systems, and clarity in a dynamic environment
• Serve as a trusted liaison to key partners and stakeholders
• Occasionally travel for key initiatives

If you love creating organization out of chaos, take pride in being the backbone of leadership success, and enjoy meaningful autonomy, you’ll love this position.

Who Thrives Here

This role is ideal for someone who is:

• Highly organized and detail-minded
• Confident, composed, and resourceful
• Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new tools
• Great at prioritizing and making judgment calls
• Discrete, professional, and dependable
• Energized by a fast-moving, entrepreneurial culture

Experience supporting senior leadership, founders, or executives is helpful — but what matters most is capability, confidence, sound judgment, and the ability to excel in a changing environment.

Compensation & Details

• Compensation: $56,000–$70,000
• Location: Remote (U.S. based)
• Schedule: Full-time, flexible across time zones
• Travel: Occasional

Ready to Be the Steady Force Behind Big Impact?

If you want your work to matter, love supporting bold leadership, and are excited to help shape the future of sustainable agriculture, we’d love to talk with you.
