Responsibilities
Forus is looking for a high-trust, high-output Executive Assistant to support our CEO and help Forus operate at maximum velocity. You will own the communication, coordination, and day-to-day execution that allow the CEO to focus on the company’s most important priorities.

Partner closely with the Chief of Staff to keep priorities, information, and follow-ups aligned across the executive function
Prepare the CEO for important conversations and meetings, ensuring the right context, materials, and coordination are in place
Manage relationships and communication with candidates, investors, partners, and teammates with discretion and care
Own travel, meetings, events, and other logistics, stepping in wherever needed to keep things running smoothly
