Description
World Labs is seeking an Executive Business Partner (EBP) to support the CEO. This is a highly strategic and execution-oriented role designed to create leverage for one of the most influential leaders in AI.
The EBP will operate as a hybrid of Executive Assistant (EA) and Personal Assistant (PA), owning priorities end-to-end, anticipating needs, and ensuring seamless execution across the CEO's professional landscape, including both World Labs and her ongoing commitments at Stanford.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own CEO's calendar end to end: sequence priorities, protect focus time, anticipate conflicts, and exercise sound judgment on what requires her time and attention.
- Partner closely with the COO and EA/Ops team to coordinate schedules and priorities.
- Work very closely with the CEO's Stanford team on competing conflicts and priorities to ensure a seamless schedule.
- Plan and coordinate meetings, travels, events, and logistics end to end, ensuring the right preparation, context, and follow-through.
- Build and maintain a lightweight operating system around priorities, open loops, follow-ups, and key commitments so important work continues moving forward.
- Ensure the CEO is prepared for key meetings with the right context, pre-reads, agendas, and understanding of who is in the room and what matters.
- Capture decisions and action items, proactively drive follow-through, and ensure nothing important gets lost between conversations.
- Manage and triage CEO's inbox, surfacing what requires her attention and drafting thoughtful responses when appropriate.
- Provide thoughtful personal support when needed, including appointments, vendors, and travel coordination, handling sensitive matters with discretion and sound judgment.
- Anticipate needs, identify issues early, and take initiative to resolve them proactively with minimal direction.
Key Qualifications:
- 8+ years of experience supporting c-suite, founder, or similarly high-profile leader in a fast-paced startup environment.
- Exceptional judgment, discretion, and ability to handle highly confidential information.
- Operationally minded, organized, and detail-oriented, with a natural ability to build systems, create structure, and anticipate needs in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
- Demonstrated capability orchestrating very complex local and global travel logistics.
- Strong written and verbal communicator who can adapt thoughtfully to different working styles and build effective relationships across research, engineering, product, marketing, and operations.
- Experience in technology, AI, academia, or research environments is a plus.
- Bilingual fluency in English and Mandarin is a must.
- Tech-savvy, with fluency in modern productivity tools.
- Willingness to be in the San Francisco office 5 days.
