Executive Assistant

About the role

We find and fix every vulnerability in our customers' applications. When a new AI model is released, we run it against their applications before attackers do, and close what it finds.

The Role

Wakefield runs a lot of its own work with agents. You'll work directly with the founders and own the work that keeps them and the company moving, including deciding what a person should handle and what an agent should: founder support, recruiting coordination, customer meetings, company logistics, and the systems behind them.

What You'll Work on

• Founder calendars, inbox triage and travel.
• Recruiting coordination: interview scheduling, work trials and candidate logistics.
• Customer meetings and briefings: scheduling, preparation and follow-up.
• Company logistics, the office, and admin like NDAs and records.
• Dinners and events, from guest list to follow-up.
• Lightweight systems and AI automations that make recurring work run itself.

Requirements

• Experience supporting founders or executives at a fast-growing startup
• You've built systems and processes from scratch
• You're extremely meticulous and catch the missed detail before anyone else
• You see what needs doing and close the loop without being chased
• Strong judgment on what to handle yourself, what to escalate, and when
• You use AI tools every day to automate recurring work
• You're warm and socially confident with candidates, customers and partners
• You genuinely enjoy making things run well

Nice to Have

• Experience in recruiting coordination
• You've run events or built a community
