Our Chief Growth Officer leads one of the most dynamic Sales organizations at Instructure. He moves fast, operates at a high level, and needs a sharp, proactive partner who keeps everything in motion so he can stay focused on what matters most.

You'll manage the operational rhythm of a C-Suite executive, build real relationships across the business, and think two steps ahead so nothing falls through the cracks.
What You'll Do
Own the CGO’s calendar: prioritize ruthlessly, protect time for deep work, and ensure every meeting has a purpose.
Build meeting agendas that drive clarity and decisions, ensuring the CGO is prepped in advance.
Book and manage all domestic and international travel, end to end.
Arrange ground transportation, lunches, and logistics proactively.
Process and reconcile expenses accurately and on time.
Partner closely with the CGO’s direct reports, VPs, Chief of Staff, and their teams to anticipate and prepare for upcoming needs.
Plan and execute elevated recognition events and team moments that feel authentic and personal.
Source and send thoughtful gifts and touches that reflect our culture.
Anticipate needs, flag risks, and bring forward solutions—not just problems.
Handle sensitive information with discretion and sound judgment.
What You'll Need
5+ years supporting C-suite or senior executive leaders, ideally in a fast-paced tech or SaaS environment.
A reputation for trustworthiness, discretion, and genuine respect from colleagues.
Strong calendar management skills and a clear approach to prioritization.
Excellent written communication; able to draft crisp messages and agendas with minimal input.
Comfortable building relationships and working cross-functionally at every level of the organization.
Highly organized yet adaptable; able to navigate shifting priorities with ease.
Low ego, high standards, and a growth mindset; committed to doing the work because it matters.
Proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, and expense tools (such as Brex, Coupa, etc.).
