You filter ruthlessly, intercept and let through what should.
You're trusted with sensitive information, and handle it with absolute discretion.
You make snap decisions with good judgement, you don't need to check every time.
You push things forward, you follow up, and make sure nothing quietly slips.
You handle logistics, scheduling, travel, and the personal admin that slows leaders down.
You take ownership of the environment, making sure the office runs exactly as it should.

Diary and logistics. Owning the calendar, travel, and day-to-day logistics. Coordinating across the SF leadership team. Making sure the right things happen at the right time, and stepping in early when something's about to break.
Team offsites and events. Planning and running team offsites and internal events. Turning rough ideas into well-run, high-quality experiences.
Information triage. There's a constant stream of information. Your job is to filter it, decide what matters, and make sure the right people see what they need to see, at the right moment.
Preparation and output. Turning rough ideas into something usable. Prepping for all-hands, building slides, shaping notes into clear documents, and making sure important moments are well prepared.
Office ownership. Owning how the SF office runs day to day. Keeping the space ready, solving problems as they come up, and making sure nothing quietly degrades over time.
People. Getting to know the incident.io team and acting as eyes and ears across the business. Welcoming customers, investors, and visitors. Building relationships, understanding who matters most, and helping leadership stay connected to the right people.

Judgement and anticipation. Can you read a situation and make the right call without being told?
Discretion. You'll handle sensitive information: board matters, personnel decisions, strategy.
No fluff. Direct communication. You drive things and make them happen.
Pace. This is a fast environment. We move quickly.
High energy. The role is demanding. The right person finds that energising.
Coachability. You take feedback well and adapt fast.
