Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?
At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.
To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.
Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.
While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only. In-person participation is required throughout the year. Team and company-wide offsites are held multiple times annually to foster collaboration, connection, and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported.
We are looking for an experienced and dedicated Executive Assistant to support a VP in the Security org.. The successful candidate should be a polished communicator, have strong organizational skills, and display a high level of discretion even in times of ambiguity and stress.
Candidates should also be professional, and committed to their role, with a strong work ethic and an instinctively proactive approach. The role requires a high level of focus and concentration to be applied in order to ensure accuracy and attention to detail with minimal supervision. Candidates must be able to work in a fast, efficient, and organized manner to cope with multiple tasks and often competing demands. Candidates should have experience or desire to have experience working with a highly collaborative EA team. This is a truly exciting opportunity for someone looking to be challenged in an exciting, high-growth environment and is willing to commit to working flexibly outside of core business hours as required. Experience working with a global team is preferred.
What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):
- Managing complex calendars with an analytical mindset around time management
- Inbox management with strong follow through and a knack for prioritization
- Effectively communicating and coordinating with internal cross-functional teams and external partners as a representative of the exec
- Attending meetings as requested, taking notes, and tracking/following up on action items
- Processing expenses and budget management
- Assisting in planning events and a commitment to building culture
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
- Proactive approach to work
- Friendly but professional approach, with the distinct ability to build interpersonal rapport and trust quickly to contribute to a highly collaborative team environment
- Highly discreet, with a strong understanding and respect for confidentiality
- Positive work ethic with a no-fuss, can-do approach to ensure work gets done quickly and efficiently
- Ability to remain calm and measured at all times, especially when under pressure and working to tight deadlines
- Inclination for strategic thinking and problem solving
- Polished communicator, both written and oral
- Excellent organization, time-management and prioritization skills with the ability to juggle multiple tasks at the same time
- Flexible and accommodating approach to the job; willing to respond to requests out of office hours as required
- Strong IT skills – in particular, proficiency in Google Suite and Slack
