Executive Partner at Athena

The Role

• Athena Executive Partners (XPs) go beyond the role of traditional executive assistants. As an Athena XP, you'll become a strategic collaborator supporting ambitious founders, investors, creators, and industry leaders as part of an integrated team that includes your dedicated member, their executive coach, and the broader Athena network.
• No two days will be the same — one day you might be organizing a high-stakes investor meeting, the next helping design a member’s personal productivity system. Athena provides continuous training so you’re always learning new skills while delivering exceptional, evolving support. Athena gives you the chance to work in a structured environment with room to grow and a team that has your back. You’ll have autonomy when you want it, and support when you need it.

Key Responsibilities

• Optimize your member's time and priorities through strategic thinking and proactive execution
• Manage high-stakes scheduling, communications, and complex logistics
• Drive research and strategic initiatives forward
• Build trust with your member's extended network and stakeholders
• Create executive-ready presentations and content
• Anticipate needs and solve problems before being asked
• Collaborate with your member's executive coach to ensure aligned priorities and seamless execution

• Intensive onboarding: Two weeks of immersive, onsite training
• Ongoing development: Monthly Hub sessions and continuous learning
• Community: Work alongside ambitious, values-aligned peers

You're a great fit if you:

• Have strong English communication skills (written and spoken)
• Are tech-savvy (Google Workspace, Mac, AI tools)

• Can work full-time (40 hours/week), often aligned to U.S. time zones
• Are fully committed (no side gigs or other employment)
