As an Administrative Assistant, you'll be the supportive backbone for our Executive Director, ensuring that Permanent’s day-to-day operations flourish. You will play an integral role in facilitating collaboration across teams, managing executive tasks, and handling communications with our external partners, members, and beneficiaries.

This position is essential within our mission-driven technology nonprofit, which is geared towards achieving significant social impact. Your role will be to create an environment that enables our entire team to succeed — making sure operations run smoothly by removing hurdles and enhancing communication.

On a daily basis, you'll engage in essential administrative tasks like drafting correspondence, scheduling meetings, organizing and maintaining files, and providing information to those who need it, both internally and externally.

You’ll know you’re doing a great job when inboxes are tidy, calendars are current, meetings are efficient, and the Executive Director can concentrate on strategic initiatives and product development rather than getting bogged down in paperwork and task management.
