Job Description

Job Title: Executive Assistant to the CEO
Location: Fully Remote
Job Type: Full-Time

We’re a team of passionate makers who believe in the beauty of handmade things and the joy of creating. From yarns and fabrics to tools designed with care, everything we make is tested and loved by someone on our team. Crafting connects us - to ourselves, to each other, and to the world around us - and that spirit of creativity and collaboration runs through everything we do.

Now we’re looking for an Executive Assistant to the CEO who shares our love of craft and community, and who can bring the same care and creativity to support our leadership. This role is all about keeping things running smoothly, anticipating needs, and making sure our CEO has the time and space to focus on what matters most - growing our movement and our company.

What We’re Looking For
At a minimum, you bring proven experience supporting senior leaders with complex calendars, confidential communications, and high-level meeting coordination. You are highly organized, resourceful, and a trusted partner who keeps operations running smoothly.

What Would Make You Stand Out
You’re not just an assistant, but a strategic partner. You anticipate needs before they arise, build relationships with board members and external partners, and streamline executive workflows at scale. You bring insight and influence to the role, helping extend the CEO’s impact across the company.

What You’ll Do

• Keep the CEO’s schedule, meetings, and priorities organized and on track.

• Prioritize and draft communications with warmth, clarity, and discretion.

• Coordinate travel and logistics.

• Prepare agendas, notes, and follow-ups so meetings are both useful and productive.

• Be a bridge between the CEO and staff, board members, and community.

• Leverage AI productivity tools to streamline workflows, automate routine tasks, and find ways to do things more efficiently – by applying existing expertise or learning quickly on the job.

• Pitch in on special projects and events where an extra set of steady hands makes all the difference.

• Spot challenges before they become problems, and smooth out the bumps along the way.

Technology & AI

We’re all about working smarter so we have more time for what matters most – creating! In this role, you’ll use technology to clear the clutter, spot what’s needed before it’s asked for, and keep things humming along. From productivity tools to communication platforms, you’ll help manage information and make workflows feel seamless. If you are already using AI tools, great! But if not, curiosity and a willingness to experiment are just as valuable.

Our Commitment to Inclusion

We believe crafting is for everyone and so is working here. Creativity thrives when different voices, perspectives, and experiences come together. We welcome team members of all races, ethnicities, ages, religions, identities, orientations, abilities, and backgrounds.

If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every single requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway. We know the best teams are built by people who bring curiosity, a willingness to learn, and a love for what they do.
