Job Description

The Linchpin Co. is a people operations group offering custom recruitment and consulting services. At Linchpin, we know a company's most valuable resource is its people, and we are people experts!

We will be the point of contact between you and Her First 100K during the recruitment process, acting as your trusted advisor and coach. We look forward to your interest.

Her First $100K is a financial education company and media platform on a mission to get more money into women’s hands. Through our top-rated podcast, New York Times bestselling book, online memberships, and a global community of over 5 million, we help close the gender wealth gap by building women’s net worth and self-worth.

As a remote-first company, we’re a diverse, creative, and values-driven team. Our mission is to build women’s self-worth through financial education and community.

We’re looking for a sharp, tenacious, and emotionally intelligent Executive Assistant to serve as the right-hand to the CEO. This is far more than a traditional admin role — it’s a high-impact, cross-functional position that blends executive support with operations, communications, and strategic initiative management. You’ll be the eyes and ears across the business, ensuring the CEO is informed and prepared, so she can focus on what matters most.

The right candidate is a natural prioritizer with sound judgment—someone who knows what to drop when there’s too much on the list, and why. You’re proactive, relationship-oriented, and unafraid to take the lead, whether you’re coordinating with media, managing partner communications, or tightening up internal systems. Above all, you make things easier—not just by doing the job well, but by anticipating what’s needed before it’s asked.

This role is a full-time, W-2 position that will begin with a 90-day probationary period to ensure a mutual fit. Although the role is remote, due to the nature of the position, the candidate must be a resident of Washington state and may be required to meet in person in Seattle, Washington, as the job requires.

What you will do:

Executive & Calendar Support

  • Manage the CEO's calendar with attention to priorities, prep, and conflicts
  • Coordinate internal & external meetings (briefing docs, notes, attachments, agendas, follow-ups)
  • Lead travel booking with full itinerary development (flights, hotels, meals, etc.)

  • Maintain and update systems and SOPs specific to the Office of the CEO, ensuring smooth setup, documentation, and workflows.

  • Liaise with PR teams and media contacts for interviews, events, and speaking engagements
  • Prepare briefing documents, one-sheets, outlines, and appearances
  • Maintain and update media kits and visibility assets
  • Support gifting, correspondence, and other brand-aligned touchpoints

Event & Culture Coordination

Must be available for in-person work in Seattle, WA to support 1:1 co-working with executives, manage administrative tasks (mail, filing, printing, signatures), and attend key meetings.

  • Willing and able to travel. This may include joining the CEO for interviews, meetings, or events, and participating in company offsites or retreats.
  • Detail-obsessed and follow-through focused . You don’t miss the small things, and you always follow up.
  • Proactive and intuitive. You anticipate needs before they’re spoken and solve problems before they become blockers.
  • Can manage competing priorities with confidence . You know how to evaluate what matters most, especially when everything feels urgent.
  • Collaborative, not siloed. While we are a remote-first company, this role is highly engaged and cross-functional. You should enjoy working across teams, contributing to shared goals, and communicating clearly to move things forward.

What you will bring:

  • Proven experience supporting C-level executives in fast-paced, high-performing environments
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with strong emotional intelligence
