Executive Assistant to CEO (Remote)

Rwazi, Inc.NigeriaFull-Time(Remote)

About the Company

Rwazi operates in a high-velocity, AI-native environment where clarity, follow-through, and structured thinking are essential. We are a company that values sharp thinking paired with humility, execution over visibility, and precision in all outputs. As we scale, maintaining speed, clarity, and execution discipline is foundational to our success.

Job Description

The Executive Assistant supports the CEO in day-to-day executive operations — documentation, planning cadence, structured follow-ups, and internal coordination. This is a foundational role inside the CEO's office. While the title is traditional, the expectation is not. We are looking for someone with former founder instincts or strong analytical pedigree — who understands strategy, but is comfortable operating in a support capacity without ego. This role requires intelligence, discipline, and humility.

  • Location: Global (Remote)
  • Employment Type: Full time
  • Department: Executive (CEO Office)
  • Reporting to: CEO

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintaining executive documentation rigor.
  • Structuring meetings into clear outputs and actions.
  • Tracking cross-functional commitments.
  • Supporting board and planning cycles.
  • Reducing cognitive load on the CEO.
  • This role strengthens executive execution hygiene.

Responsibilities

  • Executive Documentation & Structuring: Capture high-quality, structured notes in executive and board meetings; translate discussions into clear action items with owners and deadlines; maintain organized, searchable documentation systems; draft memos, summaries, and internal briefs.
  • Planning & Cadence Management: Support quarterly and annual planning processes; assist in preparing board decks and executive materials; maintain visibility over key company-wide priorities; ensure follow-through across functional leaders.
  • Cross-Functional Coordination: Track execution commitments across teams; follow up on deadlines and deliverables; escalate slippage early and objectively; maintain structured dashboards of ongoing initiatives.
  • Operational & Administrative Support: Manage executive scheduling and prioritization; coordinate internal and external communications; maintain high professional standards in all outputs.

Required Skills

  • Former founder, operator, or builder experience OR strong analytical background (consulting, finance, research, technical environments).
  • Exceptional structured writing ability.
  • Strong analytical reasoning and pattern recognition.
  • Comfort synthesizing complex discussions into clarity.
  • High attention to detail.
  • Ability to operate without ego in a support capacity.
  • Strong discretion and professionalism.
  • Former founders are welcome — provided they are motivated by discipline and execution, not status.

Other Information

  • Role Impact: Strong performance results in clear executive decision trails, fewer dropped commitments, tighter cross-functional alignment, faster execution cycles, and increased CEO focus on strategic priorities.
  • What This Role Is Not: Not a strategic leadership role; not independent product or revenue ownership; not a stepping stone to immediate executive authority. This role requires comfort operating in a support function — regardless of prior seniority.
  • Cultural Fit: We value individuals who think sharply but act humbly, prefer execution over visibility, take pride in structured output, care about precision, and follow through consistently.
  • How Candidates Are Evaluated: Based on clarity and structure of written work, analytical depth in summarizing complex discussions, discipline in tracking commitments, comfort supporting executive workflows, and absence of ego in operational contexts.
